Abstract: An arrangement for flush-mounting an insulated glass unit (IG) in a door opening may include at least one frame member configured to be positioned between the door skins along at least one edge of the door opening, and at least one glazing strip having body with a top surface and a bottom surface opposite the top surface and a flange extending away from the body at an acute angle relative to the top surface. With the IG positioned in the door opening and supported along one outer IG panel adjacent to one door skin, the flange is inserted into an opening or channel in the at least one frame member to bring the top surface of the body flush with the other door skin and to bring the bottom surface of the body into contact with an opposite outer IG panel to retain the IG in the opening.

Abstract: A door assembly may include a door defining a first face, a second face opposite the first face, and an opening formed there through from the first face to the second face, a glazing mounted to at least the first face of the door about the opening, and a recess defined in the first face of the door about the opening. The glazing may include a first panel unit defining a first exterior surface and a first interior surface opposite the first exterior surface, and a second panel unit spaced apart from and facing the first interior surface of the first panel unit. The recess may be sized to receive therein the first interior surface of the first panel unit of the glazing with a plane defined by the first exterior surface of the first panel unit substantially flush with a plane defined by the first face of the door.

Abstract: A door/doorglass assembly including a door, a doorglass and a cap. The door defines a doorglass opening and a slot aligned with the opening. The slot extends through the top edge of the door. The doorglass can be slid into the door through the slot and into alignment with the doorglass opening. The cap is secured in the top edge of the door to enclose the doorglass within the door.

Abstract: An overhead system for a vehicle includes a generally transparent panel covering a portion of the roof area of the vehicle, and at least one elongated member coupled to at least one of the generally transparent panel and a structural portion of the vehicle. A system for attaching articles to an overhead portion of an interior of a vehicle includes a generally transparent panel covering a portion of a roof of the vehicle, with at least one elongated member engaging the generally transparent panel, and at least one article adapted for mounting to the elongated member.

Abstract: An article attachment system is disclosed for a vehicle having one or more receiving members. The system includes a base having an attachment device to couple and uncouple the base with the receiving member. The base is configured to interchangeably receive an article and includes a retention device to selectively retain and release the article. A universal mounting adapter is also disclosed for interchangeably attaching articles to a receiving member and includes a base adapted to couple to the receiving member, a selectively deployable attachment device adapted to engage a portion of the receiving member and couple the base to the receiving member, an article interface to couple an article to the base, and a retention device between the article interface and the base.

Abstract: A security system for a modular system in a vehicle is provided and includes at least one elongated member configured for attachment to an interior portion of the vehicle, at least one module configured for attachment to the elongated member, a module interface unit communicating with the elongated member, and an identification unit coupled to the module and configured to interface with the module interface unit, so that the module interface unit is operable to authenticate the module when the module is mounted on the elongated member.

Abstract: A modular system for a vehicle is provided which includes one or more elongated members adapted to be coupled to an interior portion of a vehicle, where one or more removable articles are configured for attachment to one or more of the members and a utility system provides utilities to the articles. One or more holders are positioned to align with the members and are coupled to the articles for attaching the articles to one or more of the members.

Abstract: An article attachment system is disclosed for a vehicle having one or more receiving members. The System includes a base having an attachment device adapted to selectively couple the base to the receiving member and to selectively uncouple the base from the receiving member. The base is further adapted to interchangeably receive an article and includes a retention device adapted to selectively retain the article and to selectively release the article.

Abstract: A storage system is disclosed for a vehicle and includes one or more support members adapted to couple to the vehicle, a cargo storage platform coupled to the support members, and an adjustment device operably engaging the support members and the cargo storage platform to configure the cargo storage platform in one or more positions.
