ABSTRACT:
A mounting arrangement for mounting a windscreen or windshield glass is made of plastics or rubber material with an embedded metal carrier for mounting the arrangement on a flanged joint running around the window opening. The flexible material defines a ledge-shaped surface having a recess for receiving mastic. The mounting arrangement is delivered to the vehicle manufacturer with the mastic in position and covered by a thin flap. To facilitate entry of the window glass onto the ledge-shaped surface, a lip adjacent the ledge may be bent downwards into a slot. At the same time, the flap is pulled outwardly from under the distal edge of the window glass. Thereafter, the flap lies along the external peripheral edge of the window glass and the latter is secured in position by the mastic. A stiffening member is then placed in the slot. The arrangement provides substantially flush-mounting of the window glass, and no part of the flexible material or of the stiffening member extends further outwards of the window opening than the flap to any significant extent.
