Re: Window felt install?
I bent the center tabs out just a little bit on all of them, got the felt to were almost all the tabs were lined up with the holes and just started popping them in. I just did both doors other day along with all new vent window seals and channel felts- it all went way to easy... I was really worried from what I had read that it was a tough job.

Re: Window felt install?
What works for me is to get someone to help install them. One person on each side of the door. For example, when installing the outer fuzzie, the person on the outside does the installing while the person on the inside makes sure of the alignment of the clips. A flashlight makes it easier to see that the clips are starting into the holes. If you miss a hole, that is when trouble starts!
