Abstract: A vehicle window assembly including a protective transparent plastic window liner covering the inner side of the glass pane and held removably in place by flexible liner-retaining strips having quarter-round molding portions overlying the margins of the liner and anchor portions that are releasably secured in mounting grooves along the edge portions of the window pane. The anchor portions are integral with the molding portions and are pressed into the grooves past detent ribs that lock the strips releasably in place, to secure the window liner against easy removal by a passenger but permitting removal by service personnel for replacement. The mounting grooves are in elongated window-retaining bars that are positioned against the inner side of the paneand also are removably secured in place for ease of reglazing, having enlarged deformable anchors pressed into locking grooves with restricted open sides forming releasable tongue-and-groove connections for removal by tilting of the bars.

Abstract: A recreational vehicle having a door that has a leading edge with a sloped upper portion and hinges on a straight lower portion, such that the upper portion of the door is subject to fluttering under the forces encountered in use, and a catch assembly disposed between the vehicle and the door on the sloped upper portion near the upper end of the door. The catch assembly is of the type that engages as an incident to coming together as the door is closed, and is disengaged by a predetermined approximate opening force greater than the fluttering forces to be encountered in use. The preferred catch assembly comprises a leaf spring with a detent bend in a free end engageable with a catch member having a ramp for loading the spring and a detent recess into which the bend snaps on closing, and reverse-camming surfaces on the detent and the catch member for disengaging the catch for opening of the door. An important feature is the method of preventing door flutter in the foregoing manner.
