Replaced the outer door felt/seal
i replaced the outer door felt and the inner window support felts last night. should have taken pictures but didnt. sorry guys im a bad person. anyways it went well and was not a bad job. the reason i changed em was the window was bouncing around when half way up and sounded like crap when i closed the door with the window part way down. i just had to replace the widow motor and thought it may be the regulator so i changed both motor and regulator. that did not help so i looked a little closer and noticed the felt and seal were worn bad. it looked like they were letting the window move. i was right. once changed the window is solid for the most part. did find that the door skin is startin to come lose to but just barely. i had to take the door cover off, the mirror base had to come off, there is three bolts and a nut holding it on. once i got those out of the way the felt pulled out with min issues. had to start from the front and once i got one clip lose the rest came easy. lining up the clips right was a little bit hard because there are guide arms on the clips that go into a square hole and u have to get them all in before pushing the clips on all the way. the inner support felts were very easy to change, one bolt each, a small adj and there in. the window now seals much better too so im happy. gona pick up some doorskin adhesive soon and fix that.
