Abstract
A frame is provided for vehicle sliding sunroofs, the frame front member of which is injection molded in one piece from a suitable plastic and has molded-on side arms for the connection of frame side members. Molded-on swivel bearings for supporting the deployment arms of a wind deflector, arranged on the frame front member, are incorporated into the frame front member and the side arms. The wind deflector can be specially fitted to the swivel bearings without the aid of separate fasteners, in that the swivel bearings and the associated swivel bearing pivot pins of the wind deflector are designed in the manner of so-called turn catches.
