Window Felt Install, pics needed - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Last night I installed the window felt strips on my doors along with the wing windows on my '69. When I look at the result, it seems something might be wrong. The inner felt strip at the bottom of the opening extends all the way back into the upper/back chanel, overlapping the felt that goes on the top and back side of the opening. Also my wing windows have a gap on the outside of the door. I tucked the rubber into the door (?)

Does anyone have pictures of the felt strips and wings installed properly? I would love to get shots of the inner and outer strips showing both the ends and some of the wings as well...

Thanks

If you are referring to the anti-rattle felt and rubber strip, I recall having to trim mine to fit. I believe they are made long.

Thanks again
