ABSTRACT:
In a hardtop vehicle a partition and a glassrun are mounted at both sides of a center sash. The partition can receive a triangular glass of a front door and the glassrun can receive a front glass. The center sash has a die-molded portion with a thin tip end at an upper edge thereof. A roofside weatherstrip is provided. The partition, glass run and die-molded portion each include a water receiver composed of lip pieces extending along the vehicle interior side of the center sash. An opening at the upper end of each water receiver is positioned below the roofside weatherstrip when the door is closed. Each water receiver provides a clearance extending the length of the center sash and into the door below the belt line so that water discharges below the belt line.
