ABSTRACT:
A sill knob and cable assembly, for interconnecting a lock button and a vehicle latch, includes a tubular sheath and a cable slidably disposed in the sheath. The cable has a sill knob attached to an upper end thereof. The sheath has a hollow housing attached to an upper end thereof for slidably receiving the sill knob. The housing includes a guide sleeve and a shield, integrally attached to the top of the guide sleeve, for limiting unauthorized access to the sill knob and the base of the lock button, when the vehicle is locked. The housing may also include a ledge extending between the shield and the top of the guide sleeve. The shield may be a cylindrical collar for protectively surrounding the sill knob when said sill knob is in a lowered position. A sleeved housing for use with a sill knob and cable assembly is also described.
