Jim-
    I went through this a few years ago with my TR6. I ended up sourcing 
window channel from JC Whitney. The channel comes with the felt already 
adhered, cut to the length you need with a hacksaw, and rivet it to the 
support brackets. It was not all that expensive as I recall and has worked 
great even after some 6ooo miles now. You will need to take the channels out 
of the door to measure the dimensions of the U shape as JCW offers numerous 
sizes of window channel. I have no financial interest in JCW but they do 
have some odd stuff NLA from the big three suppliers in our hobby. Good 
luck,
