I was removing old window tint today and realized just how much movement there was on my drivers door window. I took off the door panel and found that there is no padding on the three guides. In the bottom of the door I found two Velcro like pieces that I’m assuming originally should have been on the guides. I can put them on, but they will not stay on while operating the window. Question is, do I have the correct pieces and does anyone know if replacement are available.

Joe, I did not find them for a g3. Do you possibly have any other info on them?

Good morning.  I searched the net this morning and could not find them either.  I went into my stash and still have them in their packaging.  Here's a pic of the felts and the receipt of who I purchased them from.  I got them through ebay from this guy.  They look the same as the ones inline tube sells for the 68-72 chevelle.   https://www.inlinetube.com/products/inl15048

Thanks Joe. I will search that seller and look into the G body sites to see if they have them.

Thanks g3chevy. The new ones say they are adhesive backed. Were the originals glued on? Mine don’t show any signs of glue, they look more like there was a plastic clip at one time on the inside of the pad.

The ones I redid on my 76 El Camino looked like they were originally glued with something similar to headliner glue. So that's what I used to restore mine and they worked fine. Hope this helps.

My 75's are glued on. Well, now they are re-glued on.

I finally got around to installing the felt on the window guides that I bought on eBay. They are basically the soft side of Velcro. They do not feel as think as the originals but seem to work just fine.

Looks like a factory install! Let us know how they perform over time.
