Abstract
A windscreen mounting arrangement comprises a first part made of plastics materials in which is embedded a reinforcing metal carrier and defining a first channel, and a second part made of rubber and also defining a channel. The part has, running alongside its channel, a longitudinal slot whose mouth faces in the same direction as the channel of that part and whose walls and base are reinforced with an embedded metal carrier. The two parts are fitted together so that one side wall of the first part fits tightly into and is secured within the slot of the second part. This produces first and second channels running side-by-side and facing in opposite directions. One of these channels fits over and grips a flange surrounding the window opening so that the other channel runs alongside the window opening for receiving the window glass.
