Abstract
The invention relates to improvements in open roof constructions, which are particularly, but not exclusively of the rail-to-rail type. The side beams of these open roof constructions are generally attached directly to the reinforcement beams on the longitudinal edges of the roof of the vehicle. According to the invention the side beams are manufactured from special extrusion sections which are very easily adaptable to various designs of the open roof construction, which are mountable into the vehicle in a rational manner, and which enable the provision of additional functions.
