The invention comprises a sealing and cover strip (8) for the B-pillar (7) of a passenger vehicle (1) comprising a support cover (10) and a decorative cover (9), each of which has a sealing half of a sealing profile for a lowerable side window on at least one of their common longitudinal sides. The present invention improves a sealing and cover strip (8) in such a way that the assembly effort during production of the vehicle is reduced and the optical appearance is improved. This follows from the fact that each sealing profile (11, 12) comprises two sealing halves (13, 14 and 13, 14), respective halves (13, 13) being integral with the decorative cover (9), and respective halves (14, 14) being integral with the support cover (10).

An encapsulated fixed window module for a motor vehicle, includes: a fixed window pane having a peripheral edge extending between exterior and interior surfaces; and a trim strip extending along at least a portion of the peripheral edge, the trim strip including a first longitudinal profile of U-shaped cross section. The first profile defines a longitudinal groove configured to receive a guide carried by a movable window pan. The exterior wall of the first profile faces the interior surface and is secured thereto by an over-molded material which does not cover the peripheral edge along the first profile. The exterior wall has a longitudinal edge which is opposite to the lateral wall and which is substantially aligned with the peripheral edge in a plane that is perpendicular to the fixed window pane.

A vehicle door glass elevating/lowering device performs elevating/lowering operation of window glass by a driving force of a drive source along a sash member along one of front and rear edges of the window glass in a door sash forming a window opening. The glass elevating/lowering device includes: a guide rail on the sash member; a slider having a glass support secured to the glass and a sliding part guided movably in the elevating/lowering directions with respect to the guide rail; and a transmission member that transmits the driving force of the drive source, in which a first sliding part regulated in position by the guide rail in at least one direction of the vehicle front-rear directions and a second sliding part regulated in position by the guide rail in at least the other direction of the vehicle front-rear directions are provided at mutually different positions in the elevating/lowering directions.

A vehicle flush window system is provided for a vehicle door including a door window. The system includes a slider member, a guide structure, a glass run seal, and a capping carrier. The slider member is configured to be secured to an interior surface of the door window. The guiding structure is mountable on the vehicle door. The guiding structure includes a receiving bracket having a guide channel configured to slidingly receive the slider member. The glass run seal is interposed between the receiving bracket and the slider member in the guide channel. The capping carrier is configured to retain the seal, and mount a cover in flush relation to an exterior surface of the door window, when the interior surface of the door window is secured to the slider member and the slider member is slidingly received in the guide channel in a window closed position.
