A roof system for a vehicle comprises a wind deflector member including a wind deflector body which extends in a transverse direction of the vehicle that is movable between a retracted position below a fixed roof and an extended position at least partly above the fixed roof. Wind deflector arms at the lateral ends of the wind deflector body extend substantially in a rearward direction and are at least rotatably connected to a stationary part. A sealing arrangement comprises a first seal is positioned between the wind deflector body and a panel that seals a gap between an the wind deflector body and the panel in its closed position. The first seal is configured to close a gap between the wind deflector arms and the panel. A second seal is closes a gap between the wind deflector member and the stationary part when the panel is in its closed position.

Vehicle roof arrangement with a movable roof element held by a frame for selectively closing a roof opening. The roof element may have a first strand-like seal profile and a second strand-like seal profile, which is formed separately from the first seal profile. The first seal profile is configured for sealing with respect to the movable roof element and can be fastened to the vehicle roof, and the second seal profile can be fastened to the frame by a plug connection and is configured for sealing between the frame and the vehicle roof. The plug connection may have a plug-in region of the frame, into which plug-in region a projection of the second seal profile may be plugged.
