Default Window Grease question...

I have the Window grease problem, and unfortunatly i'm almost a year outta bumper to bumper. My question is, will this hurt the window eventually? Or is it just annoying. My work car ('98 dodge neon) Had bad pads on the window guide, and now has permanent one inch wide gouges on both windows!! Is this gonna nappen on the Z eventually? And is it an easy fix to DIY? Thanks!!

the answer all yall's questions. If you do not have tint on your window it will not hurt the glass. The only inconvenience you'll have is having to wipe the grease off constantly. On the other hand if you have tint, it will eventually damage the tint causing a permanent streak. I have the 2003 model, purchased brand new, and have damaged tint due to the grease. Prior to the tint, I just kept having to wipe the grease off for about 2 years.

you'll have to remove the brushes entirely. There's a thread in this section that describes how to do it, with pics. You'll have to search for it though. It can't be too hard to find. Don't think about just getting the brushes cleaned either. I already been there done that. The grease will return.

Thanks for that info. I have tried to find that thread with no luck. If anybody knows where that thread is and could post a link I would much appericate it.

Once again thanks in advance!
