ABSTRACT:
A door glass run to be attached along an inner periphery of a door frame of a motor vehicle, has a vertical member to be attached along a vertical portion of the door frame, an upper member to be attached along an upper portion of the door frame, and a corner member to connect an end of the vertical member to an end of the upper member and to be attached to a corner portion of the door frame. The door glass run has a seal lip which continuously extends along the door frame. The seal lip of the vertical member is directed inwards in the free state, and pushed outwards by the closed door glass. The seal lip of the corner member extends in the direction along the door glass, and comes into close contact with the closed door glass. The vicinity of the end of the vertical member is formed so that the cross section of the seal lip is gradually changed upwards from the cross section equal to that of the seal lip of the vertical member in the free state, to the cross section equal to that of the seal lip of the vertical member, which is in the state pushed outwards by the door glass, whereby when the door glass is fully closed, an end line of the seal lip of the door glass run extending along a vertical edge of the door glass becomes a continuous straight line throughout the whole length thereof, and accordingly, at that time, fine external appearance of the door glass run can be obtained.
