The molding is such that it is equipped with a molding backside member provided with a groove, on a side of a flange surface of a vehicle side window attachment portion of the molding, and that an opening surface of the groove is opposed to the flange surface of the vehicle side window attachment portion. This molding is a molding that can be constituted by a small number of parts and that can be prevented from falling off the side window. ## Claims ### Claim at position 1 -6. (canceled) ### Claim 7 A molding having a window clamping portion clamped on a bottom edge of a side window of a vehicle, the molding being equipped with a molding backside member provided with a groove, on a side of a flange surface of a vehicle side window attachment portion of the molding, and an opening surface of the groove is opposed to the flange surface of the vehicle side window attachment portion. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The molding of claim 7, wherein a top surface of the molding backside member of the molding is a flat surface extending in a longitudinal direction of the molding, and that the flat surface is used as a primer application surface for applying a primer for bonding an adhesive that bonds the side window with the flange surface of the vehicle side window attachment portion. ### Claim 9 (depends on 7) The molding of claim 7, wherein the widow clamping portion of the molding is provided with an inclined portion by bending an area around a mouth of the window clamping portion of the molding to have an inclination. ### Claim 10 (depends on 7) The molding of claim 7, wherein the molding is provided at a mouth of the window clamping portion of the molding with a window abutment lip projecting towards an inside of the window clamping portion. ### Claim 11 (depends on 7) A method for attaching a side window, wherein the molding of claim 7 is clamped on a bottom edge of the side window, a primer and an adhesive are applied to a peripheral portion of the side window, and, when the side window is bonded to a flange surface of the vehicle side window attachment portion, the adhesive is pressed between the side window and the vehicle side window attachment portion, thereby making the adhesive flow into the groove. ### Claim 12 (depends on 8) A method for attaching a side window, wherein the molding of claim 8 is clamped on a bottom edge of the side window and, when a primer is applied to the side window, the primer is applied simultaneously to the primer application surface.
