How do the door window felts stay in? Do you just use a dab of glue?

Thanks! :D

1. If you are referring to the felts around the window frames they I believe just push in and locate themselves.
2. If you are referring to the felts either side at the top of the door base ,they are held in by little (very fiddly) clips.

The rubber backed felts around the window frame do tend to wander and a spot of glue helps.

What glue do you use?
The felts on mine have the habit of dropping down over time until the window rattles and I pull them up again.

That's exactly the problem-just use contact adhesive-Evostik, UHU or similar -clean the surfaces first and just the last inch at the top will be fine.
