ABSTRACT:
In effectuating a urethane bond for an auto gripper molding of a type constructed of rubber a crown heretofore used to cover the gap surrounding the windshield peripheral edge is not used for a gap-covering function and instead the windshield-attached gripper molding is installed upside down and the crown is thus seated inside of the gap and in this position the cured urethane mechanically interlocks with notches providing in the surface of the crown in facing relation to the urethane. The interlocking prevents both unseating movement in the installed windshield and also gap-exposing movement in the crown as might allow undesirable water seepage into the gap.
