Have a horrible draft coming from the passenger rear window...quite loud at highway speeds. I finally investigated it today and for some bizarre reason the felt that surrounds the window in the frame is missing several inches...I suspect this is my culprit.

I checked a couple of sites and I haven't turned anything up...anyone know what I should do about this? Is there a source for original equipment or replacement felts or am I left trying to rig something up to stop the draft.

On my 99 the strip slid down the rear track about 2". I pulled it up, swabbed the rubber and inside of the track with alcohol and then glued the strip with RTV. Holding fast a year later.

interesting thought...I'll take a look at that...that'd be a nice, easy, cheap fix and I wouldn't have to wait for or locate parts.

But just in case...does anyone have a source for the window felts?

GREAT TIP JEFF! That worked like a charm! I was able to reach in and pull the felt up the track. I need to get some weatherstrip adhesive to really tack it in, but otherwise that's awesome.
