ABSTRACT:
A process for the mounting of a tiltable cover at a vehicle roof includes the steps of, after the fastening of the tilt-out device of the roof to the underside of the roof, fastening a front cover end, through a roof opening, to a surrounding body so that it can be swivelled around a transverse shaft. Before the cover is swivelled into a closed position, which closes the roof opening, a gauging arrangement is mounted in the rear on the cover or on the vehicle roof which has a stop which, in the closed position, limits the swivelling-in of the cover. In its closed position, the cover is connected with a vertically adjustable cross-strut of the tilt-out device. The gauging arrangement may be formed by a magnetic or adhesive strip which is mounted at the rear cover area and projects toward the rear, or by a ledge which is placed on the vehicle roof in transverse direction and has a wall section which is directed downward through the roof opening, a stop being constructed at this wall section.
