Abstract
A sealing system and method for a mirror assembly of a vehicle is provided. The mirror assembly includes a wire harness and a gasket. A foam sheath is used to cover a portion of the wire harness, which is then routed through the gasket. This foam sheath is configured to fill any void between the wire harness and gasket. In some embodiments, a second foam sheath can be wrapped around the outside of the gasket as well as onto the first foam sheath. This creates a full seal outside of the gasket. Once this foam stack is created, the potential for wind noise caused by air traveling through the wire harness and gasket is substantially diminished. The foam stack also allows for the gasket to be deformed or bent while maintaining a reduction in noise.
