A weatherstrip assembly includes a body having a carrier or core formed from a first metal for providing strength and rigidity to the body. A show surface of the weatherstrip assembly is formed of a second metal different than the first metal. The second metal acts as the show surface of the weatherstrip assembly. An isolative, electrically low conductivity layer is received only on portions of the first metal that are disposed adjacent to portions of the second metal and potentially subject to electrical contact therebetween.

A weatherseal assembly and associated method of forming same includes a generally U-shaped body including a base and first and second legs extending outwardly therefrom to form a glassrun cavity dimensioned to receive an associated window edge therein. First and second seal lips extend from the first and second legs, respectively, for engagement with opposed, first and second surfaces of the associated window. A first material is a stiffer, more rigid material than a second material that forms at least a portion of the second leg and the seal lips, such that at least a first portion of the first material forms the first leg extending outwardly from the base such that the first leg has a reduced thickness to provide a flush assembly of the weatherseal assembly, associated window and associated vehicle component.

A profile element is provided for connecting a window pane to an auxiliary device. The profile element includes first and second legs formed from rigid polymer material and that collectively define a U-shaped retention cavity. A resilient knee element is connected to a leading end of the first leg, and a rigid detent element is connected to the knee element opposite the connection to the first leg. The rigid detent element extends into the retention cavity and is configured to snap into locking engagement with a fastening dart on the auxiliary device, to provide an audible and tactile snap that can confirm proper assembly of the elements. The second leg does not deflect relative to the first leg during installation or extraction of the auxiliary device, and the rigid contact points produced at the retention cavity enable lateral movements of the auxiliary device when necessary.

Disclosed is a glass run for an automobile door which may block noise that has passed through a door glass from easily reaching the passenger's ears, while reducing an increase in the weight and cost of the glass run. In the glass run, a space R is formed between a base end portion 41b of an inner seal lip 41 located inside a cabin and an inner surface 22b of a door glass 22 facing inside the cabin. A facing surface 41d of the inner seal lip 41 facing the inner surface 22b of the door glass 22 is provided with a sound absorbing portion 41h which absorbs noise that has entered the inside of the cabin through the door glass 22.

A vehicle window assembly and a vehicle are provided in the disclosure. The vehicle window assembly includes multiple light guide strips spaced apart from each other, a vehicle window glass sheet, and a sealing box. The multiple light guide strips are arranged on one side surface of the vehicle window glass sheet, the sealing box is disposed at one side of each of the multiple light guide strips away from the vehicle window glass sheet, the sealing box defines grooves at positions respectively corresponding to the multiple light guide strips, and each of the multiple light guide strips is received in one of the grooves. The multiple light guide strips are received in the sealing box, the sealing box is directly fixed to the vehicle window glass sheet by the fixing member.
