A length of a sub seal of a door weather strip is sized and dimensioned in a manner that a distance is longer than a length with a glass run coupling to an outer-cabin side of a flange of a frame and the door weather strip coupling to an inner-cabin side of a door with a clip. The distance is between part of a lower part of a top end of the sub seal of the door weather strip in contact with an inclined surface of an upper side wall of the glass run and part of an upper surface of a top end of a lip of the glass run. The length is of a perpendicular line that extends between the sub seal and an inclined plate of the frame passing through the part of the upper surface of the top end of the lip.

A protrusion is formed on a first part of an inner-cabin side wall of an installation base member of a protector with a sensor. The first part is closer to a connecting wall than a second part opposite the first part. The protrusion is on a virtual line in cross section. The virtual line is where convex substances, keys for example, hanging on passengers' clothes conceivably pass through. The virtual line extends toward a connecting point from a rear part of an automobile body closer to an interior of the automobile body than a reference line. The reference line is parallel with a direction in which a flange protrudes and extends from the connecting point. The connecting point is a part of an inner-cabin side end of a hollow part closest to an interior of the automobile body. The inner-cabin side end is connected with the installation base member.
