CSW Rear Sliding Windows Refurb

Does anybody know where I can get new replacement felt channel inserts for my 90 CSW rear windows?
The old felt channel has rotted away and the windows now rattle and let the Georgies blow down my neck.
I've hunted high and low but I cant be the only bloke needing to refurb them? Somebody must have done this before.
Cheers

Hi, I used these people for replacement felt and found them to be most helpful. The guy I spoke with is called Don.

I have refurbed mine earlier this year .
It's a fiddly job but well worth the effort as mine rattled a lot and were draughty too!

Hope this helps!

Cheers fellas. That gives me somewhere to start in the new year.
I've temporarily stuck the buggers shut with silicone which has stopped the rattling and made them a tad less draughty.

nice one mine are on the way out to. every time it rains bits fall off.

Somewhere way down my list is replacing my sliding windows with a solid piece of [plexi?]glass. I've yet to open the rear windows and I'm tired of the gaps, drafts, and leaks (and the moss that's growing on the felt!).

I think it is only the moss that is keeping what is left of the felt in place. The rest of the frames are sound. My kids like to open the windows in the summer as it gets a bit stuffy back there so I cant permanently seal them shut or I would.

I was looking for a new seal for my house back door and found these. About half way down the page they have rubber/felt channel seal. Looks like it could fit??
