Abstract
A window molding member for automobiles includes at least one upper segment and at least one side segment to extend along upper and side edges of a window plate, respectively, which are integrally and continuously connected with each other. The molding member comprises a main body having a section with a longitudinally variable width, which is engageable with the outer surface of the window plate with a cushion element therebetween. The cushion element may have a longitudinally variable thickness to form a weir along the side segment for preventing rain water on the window plate from flowing across the side segment to preserve driver's sight through a side window.
