Abstract

A motor vehicle door includes a box door body formed from a door outer skin and a door inner skin, a large surface cut out section in the door inner skin capable of being covered by a wet/dry space partition with a sealing element. The motor vehicle door also includes a frame structure, containing a window frame, and is connected through a fastening part to the door body. An outer seal near the vehicle body is also formed on the vehicle door. The wet/dry space partition covers, at least in part, a fastening region near the vehicle body and a door inside window sill. The sealing element on the wet/dry space partition runs through an area overlap of the partition and another sealing element is mounted between the frame structure and the door body that extends at least from the outer contour of wet/dry space partition sealing element to the outer seal.
