ABSTRACT:
A door glass weatherstripping for a motor vehicle comprises a main body; a gap-filling seal for filling the space between the edge of the surrounding surfaces and the edges of the window; a window positioning portion having a hardness greater than at least the gap-filling seal portion for guiding the window in its uppermost position thereby assuring lateral location of the window; and a gutter forming lip positioned so that substantially all the water dripping off the portion of the roof or surrounding surfaces where the weatherstrip is attached is prevented from entering the interior of the vehicle. The weatherstrip section on hardtop-type window systems may be positioned such that it extends around the whole door opening.
