Abstract
A convertible-roof window has an outside edge juxtaposed with an inside edge of an outer frame. An annular molded seal fixed to and extending between the window and frame edges secures the window in the frame and is formed with a plurality of spaced and inwardly open seats. A flexible liner formed with a window hole has an inside edge juxtaposed with the seal. A stiff mounting strip extends along and is fixed to at least a portion of the window-hole inside edge of the liner. Respective outwardly directed mounting tabs unitarily formed with the mounting strip are snugly fitted in the seats. The inside liner edge is folded over and forms an elongated pocket receiving the stiff strip. In addition the liner edge is formed at the pocket with respective holes through which the tabs project. The liner edge is stitched adjacent the strip to close the pocket. This construction is extremely simple and neat.
