A hybrid-type door outside belt for a vehicle utilizes different materials for a skin layer of a skin body that is mounted to an upper end of a door panel and a main wing that is moved by contacting the door glass, the skin layer of the skin body being made of a material having excellent scratch-resistance, and the main wing being made of a material having excellent compression set (deformation).

Provided is a laminated glass display for a vehicle, in which the wiring harness between a display part and a vehicle body is not exposed. The display part is resistant to environmental factors such as moisture. To this end, the laminated glass display for a vehicle includes a plurality of adhesive films sequentially located between an upper laminated glass and a lower laminated glass having a recess in an end adjacent to a vehicle body panel; a display part located between the adhesive films; a dampener facing the upper laminated glass and located in the recess; and a molding disposed between the dampener and the vehicle body panel.

A vehicular slider window assembly includes at least one fixed window panel having an opening, and upper and lower rails fixedly disposed at the at least one fixed window panel. A movable window panel is movable along the rails between a closed position and an opened position. A perimeter seal is disposed at a surface of the fixed window panel, with the perimeter seal providing a continuous sealing element that circumscribes the opening and that is configured to seal against a surface of the movable window panel when the movable window panel is closed. The perimeter seal includes elongated sealing portions having respective elongated sealing lips disposed along respective base portions. The perimeter seal is formed via a multi-shot injection molding process, with the base portions formed via a first shot injection molding process and the sealing lips formed along the base portions via a second shot injection molding process.

A method and an apparatus for applying sealing profiles to vehicle bodies or parts thereof, includes drawing off the sealing profile from an unwinding unit and rolling the sealing profile onto the vehicle body or the part of the vehicle body along an application line provided for application purposes, by a pressure-exerting roller of an application head. An arrangement of an automatic optical inspection system within the application apparatus provides for direct detection of defects and discontinuities of the sealing profile by the user without any need for markings on the sealing profile wound up on the roll or for data handling between the manufacturer of the sealing profile and the user.

A vehicle includes a driver side pillar extending between a door and a roof. The pillar forms a face having an outer edge adjacent the driver side door and an inner edge. Similarly, a passenger side pillar extends between a door and the roof and forms a face having an outer edge adjacent the door and inner edge. A windshield supported by a cowl and the roof has a driver side edge that extends beyond the inner edge of the driver side face and substantially covers the driver side pillar and a passenger side edge that extends beyond the inner edge of the passenger side face and substantially covers the passenger side pillar. The vehicle further includes a frit bonded around a periphery of the windshield. The frit substantially covers and is bonded to the driver and passenger side pillars making them appear to be a dark or black color.

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.
