Abstract
A unitary cowl top ventilator component has a body of rigid, polymeric material which defines a structural member of the component. A first body of polymeric material is fusion bonded to a first portion of the structural member to provide a windshield seal, and a second body of polymeric material is fusion bonded to a second portion of the structural member to provide a hood seal. In some instances the hood seal is a bulb-type seal, and in other instances it is a blade seal.
