The  sliding window on the sliding door on my '82 Westy rattles. The
little fuzz  strip is completely de-fuzzed and I suspect this to be the
problem. Is this  something people have replaced before? I can't find a
part number on ETKA  or any reference to it on the Bus Depot site, and,
though perhaps I was not  using the right lingo, no hits searching the
archives  either.

Doug et all, that fuzzy  strip is easily replaceable.  I've done it many
times.  The  part was still available from VW when I ordered it last in June 07.
