A vehicle weather strip according to the present invention includes a base that is attached to a door, a protrusion (a first elastic contact section) that comes into elastic contact with a sash of the door further in a door outer side direction than the base, a protrusion (a second elastic contact section) that comes into elastic contact with the sash further in the door outer side direction than the protrusion (the first elastic contact section). The protrusion (the second elastic contact section) is in contact with at least a molding in the sash.

Vehicle weather strip

A door inner panel includes a front operation opening and a rear operation opening that communicate with the inside of a door main body. A seal portion is formed at an edge of each of the openings. The seal portion allows a hole seal that covers the openings to be attached thereto. In the door inner panel, a first extension portion, a second extension portion, and a third extension portion extend, toward the rear opening, from the lower rear portion of the seal portion formed at the edge of the rear opening. The top ends of the first extension portion, the second extension portion, and the third extension portion are connected together to form a connection portion. A displacement preventing portion is located in the connection portion and prevents displacement of a door trim urged by a side airbag toward the door inner panel.

Vehicle side door

A vehicle door includes an elongated upper door beam and an elongated lower door beam each fixed horizontally to an inner surface of a door outer panel. Respective ends of the door beams are fixed to the inner surface of the door outer panel by fixing members. A portion of the upper door beam at an intermediate position between the ends in a longitudinal direction is coupled to the inner surface of the door outer panel by a first coupling bracket and a second coupling bracket with a seal member (a mastic sealer) interposed between the coupling brackets and the inner surface. A harness for a window regulator and a wire harness for an outer handle are installed inside a door main body. The wire harness is mounted on the first coupling bracket and the second coupling bracket.

Vehicle door

There is provided a door hole seal installed between an inner paneland a door trimof an automobile door, a part of which is provided with a slit mechanismthrough which a wire harnessis pulled out, wherein said slit mechanismis prepared by: watertightly installing at least an upper end of a sub-sealon an outer-cabin side of a main seal; providing a first sliton said main sealin a horizontal direction; and providing a second sliton the sub-sealat a lower position than the first slitin a horizontal direction.
