ABSTRACT:
In a sliding lifting roof for motor vehicles a water trapping strip is resiliently fixed to a water deflector underpinning the rear marginal gap between a trailing edge of a sliding cover and the rear edge of the roof opening. The water trapping strip is biased by spring tension in the sense of an upward displacement, so that when the sliding cover is open it projects upwards over the rear edge of the roof opening with a splash guard. In the case of braking during forward travel and with the sliding cover open, splashed water from the surface of the rear, fixed vehicle roof is trapped by the splash guard and is passed by the water trapping strip to the underlying water deflector.
