Abstract: A trim component for mounting to a structural member of an automotive vehicle presenting an edge including a body adapted to be fixedly mounted to the structural member and extending substantially along the length thereof. The body presents a primary surface facing the interior of the vehicle and a contoured mounting surface disposed opposite the primary surface and corresponding to the shape of the structural member. The contoured mounting surface includes a plate disposed adjacent the edge presented by the structural member when the trim component is mounted thereto.

Abstract: A continuous method of making a dual durometer self-locking, self-sealing plug for filling and sealing holes in panels. The plug is made from two different, chemically compatible thermoplastic materials by coinjection of the two molten components sequentially into a mold and cooling them concurrently to form the unitary plug.

Abstract: A dual durometer self-locking, self-sealing plug for filling and sealing holes in panels and a continuous method for making same is disclosed. The unitary plugs have the same shape as the opening to be filled and comprise a hard hole-filling, locking portion united with a softer sealing portion that is elastomeric and seals by 360.degree. contact with the inner periphery of the opening. The plug is made from two different, chemically compatible thermoplastic materials by coinjection of the two molten components sequentially into a mold and cooling them concurrently to form the unitary plug.
