ABSTRACT:
A stabilizer (24) for a vehicle side door window (16) includes a molded plastic stabilizer member (26) having a vertical groove (28) that receives a vertical window edge to control the path of window movement and window positioning in an upper closed position. An adjustable connection (30) of the stabilizer (24) permits inboard and outboard adjustment of the location of the top edge (22) of the window (16) in order to provide effective sealing. The stabilizer member (26) is preferably mounted on a front projection (34) of the associated vehicle door (14) and stabilizes the front window edge (18). A mounting bracket (48) associated with the adjustable connection (30) cooperates in providing the mounting of the stabilizer member (26) on the front door projection (34) and has stop flanges (80) and (82) that limit the extremes of adjustment. The groove (28) of the stabilizer member (26) converges in an upward direction to provide slidable engagement of both glass surfaces with the upper end of the stabilizer in order to increase the stability provided.
