Also the window sweeps can cause or contribute to scratches... there are 2 wide felt pads on the sweeps that the glass rides against, those can scratch too if the felt is worn or glass is to tight against them.
thanks for the input.
If anyone knows where to buy just the felts, let me know. I have several Firbirds and do not want to buy a ton of brackets I do not need.
