Embodiment Construction

[0021] Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0022] This embodiment is applicable to a lateral part of a vehicle as shown in FIG. 4. That is, a recess 1 is formed in an upper edge of a quarter panel QP along an opening lower edge of a quarter window QW on the lateral face of the vehicle behind a slide door SD, and a center rail 2 is securely fitted to the recess 1. The recess 1 and the center rail 2 are covered with an opaque elongation 70 formed in a lower edge portion of a window glass 7 of the quarter window QW. In the lateral face of the vehicle body, a gap K between a lower edge 701 of the elongation 70 of the window glass 7 and a lower edge 10 of the recess 1 is matched with belt lines B1, B2 of a front door FD and the slide door SD, so that the belt lines B1, B2 and the gap K constitute a side line extending straight and continuously.

[0023] As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, the recess 1 is formed in a panel member P1 of a ...

Abstract

In a mounting structure for a center rail, a recess extending horizontally along the lower edge of a window opening of a lateral face of a vehicle body is formed, and the center rail is disposed in the recess to guide a slide door. The center rail is divided in the vertical direction and thus composed of an upper rail member and a lower rail member. The upper rail member is securely fitted to an upper part of the recess and covered with an opaque elongation of the lower edge of a window glass. After mounting the slide door to the lateral face of the vehicle body and painting the vehicle body, the lower rail member painted in a color different from that of the vehicle body is mounted so as to cover a lower part of the recess.
