guides scratching the OUTSIDE of the front windows i need to find replacements for the 3 felt covered window guides that touch the OUTSIDE of the side windows on my f-body. The ones on the inside are fine, but the 3 that are on the outside of the window are falling apart and scratching the crap out of my window. I've searched but all I can find are the felt guides that bolt to the door and go on the inside of the window.
Any help or suggestions would be great.

I've renewed the guides on old cars by wire wheeling the old felt off and replacing it with the soft part of Velcro. Those are always metal, if newer cars have plastic, you could still do it, just have to be careful when you remove the old felt. I use the strip type Velcro.
Ones on old cars are adjustable and will affect window location/seal. So I always mark their location so they get installed exactly where they were before.

whoops...i meant to say that I need the outside, and not the inside. The inside guides that you can get at the dealership are fine. It is the outside ones that are screwed up on my car. Thanks for the help though.
