In the case of a sliding cover of a motor vehicle slide-and-lift roof, said sliding cover being composed of transparent material and being provided with a rim moulded on integrally at the edge, said sliding cover accommodates a reinforcing frame having a peripheral integral moulding. To ensure that parts associated with the reinforcing frame do not detract from the external appearance, the integral moulding is in each case designed as a screen running in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle and projecting towards the vehicle interior.

The cover of a rigid sliding roof is sealed against the solid roof region around it by means of a peripheral hollow chamber seal, a bead of this seal being only locally in contact with protrusions which are formed at the front of a rail fixing the hollow chamber seal. So that an adjustment procedure can be carried out in the case of a lack of pressure effect or in the case of too much pressure effect by means of tools, one appropriate to each case, each protrusion is aligned with and at a distance from a penetration which can be plastically deformed so that in each case the protrusion is moved towards or away from the penetration.

The invention relates to suction cups attached to the body of a motor vehicle for positioning the windshield during the hardening of an adhesive between the windshield and the body of the motor vehicle. The suction cups ensure a quick and accurate assembly of the windshield by maintaining a fixed position of the windshield during the hardening of the adhesive.

For fastening a cover part at a frame part in which both parts have at least a metallic frame structure, spherical segments formed out of the frame part with fasteners in the form of balls are provided while the counter fasteners are constructed as collars which are components of the cover part and extend angularly bent in the direction of the frame part. After inverting the collars over the balls, each collar is pressed flat by a predetermined amount under straightening during a pressing operation in which the frame part serves as supporting surface so that at the end of the deformation operation, the collar is supported at the ball.

Water guide channels for motor vehicles are known, which have a continuous profile strip running along the windscreen pillar and the roof, the profile strip having a constant cross-sectional shape over its entire length. In order to optimize an arrangement of this type, it is proposed that in the region of the windscreen pillar, the profile strip form a wall part of a water guide channel open towards the center of the vehicle and, that, in the approximately horizontal roof region, it completely covers up the top of a channel formed by depressions in the external skin of the roof thereby forming the water guide channel by a leg of the profile strip, and the external skin of the roof.
