Oh.... by the way.. have you ever considered being a hand model? Like David Duchovny in Zoolander? You should consider it.

Spoke with the guy who is going to tint my windows, mentioned the concern about scratching and the mole skin. He said that is only needed with the cheeper brands of tint, what he is going to install has a scratch resistant layer on the inside and is not needed. Also gave me a year warranty aginst scratching. Also added I can not roll down the windows for the first week untill it compleatly cures. Is he on the level or blowing smoke?

I've yet to hear of anyone installing tint without felt and it not getting scratched up. If he stands behind his work then great, but you'd still have to leave the car there "again" if it does get scratched. Personnaly I'd put the felt on...

You're not saying that you got the scratches after the moleskin. You got them before putting on the moleskin?

Spoke with the installers boss. ( gotta go to the top ) He said that on the new mustangs you need moleskin, the window trim is not a soft rubber like in the past, but a hard plastic and it will scratch. They will put the moleskin on.

Just gotta let everyone know the satisfaction of the automoleskin...
I purchased a moleskin kit. From the website, it says 2-3 day priority shipping. I ordered on a Wednesday and by the next Monday, without any package, I sent an email inquiring where my kit was. I got a response of
"We ship every Monday.
When did you order? If you ordered last week then we sent it out yesterday
2-3 day air.
You will have it tomorrow or the next day.
I promise.
"
I couldn't believe I received an "I promise." in the email. Very unusual for a company to state that. Well, could you believe that on Tuesday my package was delivered just as what was promised. All I have to say is don't hesitate to order from the company! Great service! Now I just need my car!

It's not moleskin.... I tried for weeks to find that and got nowhere.. but this felt is very similar.... much better than the soft side of velcro. just click the link and choose your width...

Make sure you test it out in the heat for a coupe months first.
Most of those generic felts will break down and start to smear your window and tint with glue and then come off altogether.
We worked for almost a year to produce an adhesive that could withstand the very high heat and humidity the moleskin is subjected to inside a door panel on those hot days.
Trust me, the cheep stuff won’t work for long. I even recommend it to the hesitant people. They always come back to us.
That is why we have tint shops buying our product instead of others. They don’t want people coming back and complaining that the moleskin has come off or is gluing up their windows. Ours doesn’t because we made it specifically to withstand the high heat and humidity of automobile applications.

Ordered the kit today as well.
My window tint has a TON of scratches all over it... been putting off getting it re-done for too long.

Ford designed the window wipes this way, and aren't going to change it. The guy that did my tint had the felt built into the price, but I had already installed my own moleskin. I saw what happened on the '05 and didn't want that again.
He said it started with Mercedes, then a couple other manufacturers, and now Ford's starting to do it on their cars. They don't care about our aftermarket mods, they only care about their bottom line.
