Abstract

A web or band is attached to the sliding actuator or lever of a slider control at the control panel of an automotive vehicle to prevent the passage of light and dust through a slot in the control panel traversed by the actuator. The ends of the web may be free or, alternatively, attached to the actuator to form an endless or continuous band.
