Abstract

See full text

A molding member includes an elongate pre-shaped main body of initially constant cross section, with upper and side portions to continuously extend along respective edges of an automobile windshield plate. The main body covers a gap between the windshield plate and an automobile body panel, and has a reference point which is more spaced from the outer surface of the windshield plate along the side portion than along the upper portion. A lip section of the main body can be maintained in contact with the outer surface of the windshield plate along the upper portion with a first angle, and spaced therefrom along the side portion with a second, less steep angle. A weir of a refined appearance, with desired cross-sectional area or height, is defined along the side portion, between the windshield plate and the lip section, and prevents water on the windshield plate from flowing across the molding member.
