Tint and moleskin protection

I just had my C350 tinted but forgot to mention to the tinter about moleskin protection. I did a thorough search in the forum and noticed that you can DIY. Some ordered kits from tintprotector, but they don't seem to have it for W204 yet. I guess it is just a matter of how long a piece of felt you need per window. I read that most took the inner door panel off before installing the moleskin. However, there is one post who suggested that the tint guy told him that he could have removed the rubber window seal without removing the inner door panel, installed the moleskin and re-insert the seal back.

Any experience and input would be helpful.

Sorry to sound ignorant, and let me get this straight, you mean :-

a. You think I don't need to take the inner door panel off before installing the moleskin, or

b. You think I don't need to install the moleskin for my W204?
