What did you use to stick your new window felts around the door window openings? Has anyone used anything other than the screws/staples that come with the kits.

thanks

Does anyone know, if there is any other manufactures of window felt kits for a 39 Ford other than Vintique? Thank You Marv
 
I installed mine with 3M double sided tape. This is the stuff they use to mount trim and mouldings on newer cars. It's weatherproof and sticks like crazy. The only drawback is it is thicker than glue.
 
Be more careful than I was if you use screws. I left one to high and cost me another side window due to a Big crack.

Thanks for your input fellas. Mine is Vintique ex C&G Ford. Twenty years ago for my last car they came from Dennis Carpenter , I think. Same screws but no staples.

I bought the clips that are supposed to be like the original installation. I have not installed the fuzzies yet. Has anyone use the clips?
 
I use the clips. I modified a standard vice grip plier to close against a stop in order to clamp all the clips the same amount onto the fuzzy. Any pliers will work because it doesn't take much pressure to clamp the clips tight. Cut off a short length of fuzzy to experiment with exact placement of the clips so it looks right once installed. john
