ABSTRACT:
An edge trim and weather seal assembly for a movable sun roof of a vehicle comprises an edge strip secured in use around an edge of a sun roof panel by means of a bonding agent, and a seal strip mounted on the edge strip to form a weather seal with the vehicle roof opening. The edge strip has top and bottom flanges overlying upper and lower edge portions of the sun roof panel and secured thereto by the bonding agent, and a recess or well portion in the bottom flange receives excess bonding agent and prevents its spillage out onto the exposed part of the sun roof panel. The seal strip has a locating edge portion for engaging the recess in the bottom flange of the edge trim to retain the seal strip on the edge trim.
