Abstract
A rigid lid with edge gap seal for an automobile roof, which may be constructed either as a glass lid or as a sheet metal lid, comprising an edge gap sealing profile to be fixed directly to the lid for the purpose of compensating dimensional variations of the edge gap between automobile roof and lid, into which profile a gap compensating element, permanently deformable in the transverse direction, is moulded in. The gap compensating element is formed of a downwardly open U-profile, the inner flange of which is constructed non-deformable and is held to the outer periphery of the lid, and the outer flange of which is flexible for the purpose of dimensional change.
