A window assembly includes a windshield and a gasket formed by curing a polymeric gasket material in situ on the windshield to encapsulate a marginal peripheral edge thereof and form an integral leaf screen and mounting tab. The gasket is formed in a mold with the windshield typically by a reaction injection molding process. The gasket-forming cavities in the mold can be separated by removable plugs and be connected to multiple inlet means for separately filling the cavities. The gasket, leaf screen and mounting tab can be formed of one material, or the leaf screen and tab can be formed of a different material than the gasket.
