ABSTRACT:
A weatherstrip retainer unit and a roof construction using the weatherstrip retainer unit are disclosed. The weatherstrip retainer unit comprises a retainer section and an integral molding section. The roof construction is designed to accommodate well to the installation of a roof rack in which a gutter strip has a flange overlying on the inside surface of a downwardly extending roof edge portion of a roof so as to reinforce the latter. The roof rack is placed with each leg engaging the outside surface of the reinforced roof edge. A plurality of generally U-shaped fasteners are used, each having its longer arm fixedly screwed to the roof rack and its shorter arm engaging the flange of the gutter strip.
