Abstract

In a rigid lid, associated with the roof opening of an automobile roof surface, in order to achieve low manufacturing tolerances at the lid external dimensions and to simplify manufacture of the lid, the lid plate and the reinforcing frame fitted below it have injection moulded around them a single-piece, peripheral plastics frame, which additionally constitutes an upper bordering frame and carries integrally formed fixing elements for an edge gap sealing member.
