I replaced the rubber and felt on my windows. What holds the vertical window scraper on the fixed window at the top? I know the bottom is held in place by the bracket that has the window latch openings. If there was something at the top it might have gotten tossed.

The felt kit is from Jbugs. There’s a lot of vertical movement in the windows. Is this because of the kit? Should I have ordered from Wolfsburg instead?

This at the top. It's a rubber block. The bottom is held by the bottom felt/rubber.

If you’re referring to the window divider, there is a small clip that attaches to the top of the window divider tab. It is pushed into the felt for a tight fit
