Felt window guides

Does anyone sell just the replacement felt to glue on the original guides? Seems silly to spend $25/each at Hawks for new ones.

You can buy 2 inch wide Velcro by the inch at most Ace hardware stores. The fuzzy side is about the same at the guide felts. Worked on my T/A

Re: Felt window guides

You talking about the adjustable guides? I never thought about just replacing the fuzzy part.

Yup, works just fine. Cut a piece long enough to fold over like the originals. Clean the bracket first to get good adhesion.
