A handle supporting a mat roller head at an angle to the handle to make applying force to the adhesive acoustic damping mat easier in tight spaces. The angle is optionally adjustable. The roller head includes arms supporting a roller with a two-dimensionally corrugated surface to enable applying adhesive acoustic damping mats to irregular surfaces. Additionally, the roller head supports two LEDs to improve visibility of the workspace when adhesive acoustic damping mats are being applied. Power for the LEDs comes from batteries in a battery compartment in the handle. The screw-on battery compartment cap includes an ON/OFF switch. The handle has a top thumb rest and a bottom finger rest and has a partial tactile engagement surface.

A door wiring module includes: a door planar member incorporated into a door to partition an inner side and an outer side of a vehicle; and a wiring member held by the door planar member, wherein the door planar member includes an inner side surface directed to the inner side of the vehicle and an outer side surface directed to the outer side of the vehicle, a wiring groove is formed in the inner side surface, at least a part of the wiring member is housed in the housing groove, a guide protruding part guiding water is formed in the outer side surface, and at least a part of the guide protruding part is formed along at least a part of the wiring groove.

A vehicle door is disclosed that includes: an outer panel; an inner panel located inboard of the outer panel; a window channel; a window glass; a structural beam; and a reinforcement member supported by the inner panel and the structural beam so as to inhibit force transmission through the vehicle door during a side impact. The window glass is movable within a window slot collectively defined by the outer panel and the inner panel. The window channel is supported by the inner panel, extends in generally orthogonal relation to the window slot, and is configured to receive the window glass such that the window glass is movable therethrough. The structural beam is supported by the inner panel and defines a longitudinal axis. The structural beam is configured such that the longitudinal axis extends in generally parallel relation to the window slot and in generally orthogonal relation to the window channel.

A water-shield includes a flexible body having a drip ledge. That drip ledge is displaceable between a first position and a second position. A door assembly includes a wall and the water-shield. In the second position, the drip ledge extends through an access opening in the wall to divert water away from the dry side of the wall. A related method is also disclosed.

A vehicle door sealing assembly includes a door trim panel and an inner frame panel defining a door cavity, a window positioned proximate the door trim panel and the inner frame panel, a beltline seal disposed between the door trim and inner frame panels and in selective engagement with the window and a leak seal extending between the door trim panel and the beltline seal to divert a flow of air from the door cavity.

An automotive door-hole-sealing material reduces noise to be generated by contact between the sheeted foam elastic material and the protrusion, and, moreover, improves quietness inside the passenger compartment with high sound absorption performance and sound insulating effect. The automotive door-hole-sealing material 1 includes a resin sheet 2, and a sheeted foam elastic material 3. The resin sheet 2 has a through hole 2c formed in association with a protruding end of the impact absorbing material 105. In a side view, the sheeted foam elastic material 3 has a portion relaxing within an inner periphery of the through hole 2c of the resin sheet 2.

A vehicular door structure includes a door inner panel in which a work aperture is formed, a sealing sheet configured to close the work aperture, a sealing compound application section formed at the door inner panel, and an attachment member configured to hold a wire-shaped member and attach the wire-shaped member to the door inner panel, wherein the attachment member is disposed in the middle of an extension direction of the sealing compound application section, and a sealing compound configured to adhere the sealing sheet to the door inner panel side is continuously applied across the sealing compound application section and the attachment member.

A carrier module including a pair of carrier members operably coupled to one another via at least one cable is provided. The carrier members are configured for substantially free movement relative to one another to facilitate installation of the carrier members into an internal door cavity through an opening formed in the inner panel, wherein at least one of the carrier members is adjustable along at least one of cross-vehicle, aft/forward, and up/down directions.

A water shield member includes a cup-shaped concaved portion that has an opening, a hinge portion and a flange portion. The hinge portion extends from the concaved portion and extends around the opening of the concave portion, the hinge portion having a first thickness. The flange portion extends around the hinge portion and the concaved portion. The flange portion is spaced apart from the concaved portion and defines a first plane. The flange portion has a second thickness greater than the first thickness. The concaved portion, the hinge portion and the flange portion are all made of a common material.

A door assembly may include a sub-assembly having a sub-assembly panel, one or more rails, an edge strip, and a sealing gasket. The rails may extend from the sub-assembly panel and may overhang an edge of the panel to be sealed. The edge strip may be configured to seal the panel extending across a region of the edge where the rail overhangs the edge. The sealing gasket may be a foam-in-place gasket. The sealing gasket may be applied to the sub-assembly panel around the perimeter of the sub-assembly panel and may interact with the edge strip at the region where the at least one rail overhangs the edge to form a contiguous seal around the sub-assembly panel.
