Abstract

A guide arrangement for a sliding window of a vehicle includes a generally "U" shaped guide rail secured in a frame of the window opening and a runner slidable in said guide rail and which straddles and is fixed to the an edge of the window. The runner has a thin web disposed between the outer surface of the window and an outer leg of the guide rail in which the runner slides, so that the outside surface of the window is almost flush with the outer surface of the vehicle. A weatherstrip like seal mounted on the frame of the window opening engages the window.
