A guide rail for a sliding roof system in a motor vehicle includes a first rail element and a second rail element rigidly connected to the first rail element. A guide track extends without interruption over the first and second rail elements. The first and second rail elements include abutment edges that face each other. The abutment edges run in a generally straight line to form an acute angle relative to a longitudinal direction of the guide rail.

A wind deflector mechanism for a vehicle sliding roof system includes a wind deflector lever attached to a wind deflector element. The wind deflector lever is attachable to a vehicle and can be swiveled between a home position and a raised position. A raising lever is coupled to the wind deflector lever and swivels the wind deflector lever between the home position and the raised position. A raising spring acts upon the raising lever substantially in such a manner that the raising lever biases the wind deflector lever toward the raised position.

A roller blind system for a sliding roof includes a guide rail and a spring steel band that is guided in the guide rail in sections. The spring steel band has an end that is situated outside the guide rail, and which contracts to a coil. A roller blind is attached to the spring steel band, and a compensation spring is provided.

A foamed vehicle component has a foamed main component and an insert. The insert serves as a fastening element and is embedded in the foamed main component by foaming. The insert, in a portion embedded in the foamed main component, is surrounded at least in sections by an elastic intermediate component. Pliability of the elastic intermediate component is larger than that of the foamed main component, so that the insert is resiliently supported in the foamed main component.
