  • Patent number: 9290083
    Abstract: A vehicle glass run system includes an inner panel that is coupled to a ring frame. The inner panel, as coupled to the ring frame, defines an assembly. The inner panel exhibits a first tolerance, wherein the assembly of the inner panel and ring frame exhibits a second tolerance. The second tolerance is greater than the first tolerance. Both the inner panel and ring frame include flange portions which are coupled together, and both include a distal end. The distal end of the inner panel is disposed outboard of the distal end of the ring frame. A glass run reinforcement member is located to the distal end of the inner panel in assembly, such that the glass run reinforcement member is subject only to the first tolerance of the inner panel.
