Abstract

A door frame and galss run assembly for a motor vehicle including a door frame, a door molding secured along an inner periphery of the door frame, and a glass run inserted in the channel portion formed by the door frame and the door molding. The glass run has a solid rubber base portion which is generally U-shaped in cross-section and is inserted into the channel portion. A projection made of sponge rubber is formed on an outer surface of an outside corner portion of the base portion with respect to the passenger compartment of the motor vehicle. When the base portion is inserted into the channel portion, the projection comes into pressing contact with an inner surface of an outside corner portion of the channel portion with respect to the passenger compartment.
