    I'm looking for options to replace the felt window channel liner in my '77 Maverick four-door. All I find is two-door weatherstripping for sale, so I'm guessing that I'm going to have to make it myself. All the local parts stores have bulk rubber weatherstripping, but no felt channel lining. What would be a good source for this stuff?

    Mike; used the J.C. Whitney stuff in my 2dr. Works great! Just remember to slide it in and down the channel, about 3" past the end of the channel in the door. A little vaseline might make it easier to get in.
