moleskin

[Wicked Pissah]

the place i had my windows tinted have a life time warrantee against any defects. so i want to get my front windows re done. there 35 now, im gonna go down to 20. right now the tint is scratched to hell. i have searched plenty and came up with a few things to possibly help the problem, either change my 05 moldings to the 07 up moldings. or get this moleskin from http://www.tintprotector.com/ ....who here has had this problem and used either one of the things listed... how has it worked for you?

My moleskin drove me nuts I hated it. Always left adhesive on my windows.

I got the new moldings. Prob solved.

I bought the new moldings. It took about 5 minutes per side to install. Once you get the old one out you kind of have to tap the new one in place with a rubber mallet because its hard to get it in there. Its been 9 months since I tinted and no scratches.

ok thanks to the both of you for the fast replies. just what i wanted to hear...now where did you order the new molding from?

I installed the Moleskin in my old car, never had a single problem with it leaving a residue after about 4 months.

Late Model Restoration sells them

or Tousley Ford LH (8R3Z-6321457-A) & RH (8R3Z-6321456-A) about $25 each plus shipping

These are way better than moleskin

Ryan, def go with the upgraded strips.

I got some last summer for tint I'm getting this summer. They are much nicer pieces than whats in there now.

I got the upgraded strips and have had no problems with scratching. I really wish I would have went with 20 all around instead of 35

i put moleskin on mine and have not had any problems what so ever.

Nice thing about the updated gasket is its basically stock, no worries about adhesive leaking out like the moleskin. I paid about $35 a side including shipping from my local dealer through http://www.fordparts.com/

If you do a search you'll find others with adhesive residue problems with the moleskin. The new inserts are the best solution and will fix it 100% of the time with no possibility of any adhesive problems.

What do you mean by adhesive problems? Like it getting on the window?

I went with the replacement moldings and have worked flawlessly on my newly tinted windows for a a few months now

I had an '06 and I went to Walmart and bought some Velcro. I used the soft side of the Velcro and cut it to fit. $5 maybe. Worked like a champ!!!!

I used Tintprotector on my 07 and never had any issues with it.

With the way it gets hot and humid up here dude, just go for the 08+ replacement pieces. It takes 10 min to do!
