A window unit includes a glazing panel and a rigid part provided on at least a part of an edge of the glazing panel on at least one peripheral side and designed to receive a decorative strip. The rigid part includes at least one snap-fit system with a base and at least first and second arms. The window unit also includes a frame profile encompassing the edge of the glazing panel on at least one peripheral side and is made of soft material. The frame profile is over-molded on at least a part of the rigid part. The snap-fit system has at least one rigid arm and at least one flexible arm.

A kit for cladding a door rail of a vehicle, comprising two similar assemblies suitable for mounting on the rail of the same door, only one of these assemblies being mounted on this rail according to a desired aesthetic aspect among a first aspect called flush and a second aspect called non flush.

The present disclosure relates to an encapsulation assembly for automotive glass including first glass, an encapsulation component, a plastic guiding rail, a sealing strip, and a decorative layer. Second glass is slidably connected in the plastic guiding rail. One end of the plastic guiding rail is fixedly connected to an edge of the first glass by means of integrally injection-molding the encapsulation component. The other end of the plastic guiding rail is provided with a guiding groove for guiding sliding of the second glass. The guiding groove includes an upper wall and a lower wall opposite to each other. The sealing strip is fixed between the upper wall and the lower wall. The second glass and the sealing strip slidably cooperate. A side of the plastic guiding rail facing outside of a vehicle is provided with the decorative layer by injection molding.

A weatherstrip is adapted for use on an associated vehicle, and finds particular use as an outer belt. The two-part structure includes a molded exterior shell having integral attachment features, and integral wrapped end features that are unitarily or integrally molded with the shell. An extruded weatherstrip insert is placed within the shell and provides the desired sealing to the glass and attachment to a door flange. The molded shell reduces the need for extensive trim operations to otherwise create complex geometries, stretch bending and incorporates end attachment features while the aesthetic outer show surface may be chrome plated which leads to reduced scrap associated with the commonly-used stainless steel.

A decorative member is attached to a side of a glass run outside a passenger compartment without degrading the workability in the attaching the glass run to a window frame, while reducing possible dents. The glass run includes a core, a base member located on the exterior wall of a trim outside the passenger compartment and made from a material with a high flexural modulus, and a decorative member fixed to a side of the base member outside the passenger compartment.

A vehicular window trim assembly includes a decorative outer trim member having upper and lower outer boundary mating portions formed on the perimeter of the trim member. The assembly also includes a channel-shaped window seal having a mouth to receive a panel-like member and upper and lower outer boundary mating portions formed on the perimeter of the seal mateable in sealed relationship with the upper and lower outer boundary mating portions, respectively, of the trim member to form an outer boundary. Mating portions of the trim member and the seal are joined together to form an outer boundary.
