At two years old when I bought it, the front sidecurtain windows on TSF130L
felt a little stiffer than rear-window material. The local top shop had
something that was identical to replace them - they scratched quick if you
drove the car every day and opened the windows every drive without washing
them first. Because they weren't completely flat, they rubbed on the plexi
window when sliding it open, scratching it too.
