<feeling silly>

Just put your car in the freezer, and #24 in the oven.  This should  
grow the channel felt enough and shrink the window frame enough to  
snugly fit the product properly.

Then make sure your A/C is working smartly so the channels never fall out.

Have you changed your air filter lately?
