Abstract Herein disclosed is an automotive door glass run comprising: a glass run portion having its outer wall exposed, when the door glass run is mounted in a door sash, to the outside into a position generally flash with the outer surface of the door; and a mounting base formed inside of the glass run portion, wherein the improvement resides in that the glass run portion includes: a glass retaining wall formed of the outer wall of the glass run portion; and a bent lip formed in an inner wall of the glass run portion for pushing the inner face of the door glass, wherein the mounting base includes: a elastically deflectable bridge formed of a portion of the inner wall of the glass run portion; and a pair of first and second engagement legs formed at both the ends of the bridge, and wherein a rigid member is disposed to extend from the engagement portion of either of the first and second engagement legs to the near portion of the leading end of the glass retaining wall. Thus, the glass run and the insert can have simplified profiles, and the auxiliary positioning member for the glass run portion can be dispensed with.
