German term or phrase: Anschlag
Fenster fährt bis zum oberen Anschlag.

This term appears a lot on 50 pages, in different context, all related to the window of a car. I know what it means, just can't come up with the right term. I would need a translation that I can use consistently in the whole text (if possible, one or two words that say it all)

thanks, I have found that in the glossary, but it didn't sound so precise to my ears as the German "Anschlag". However, it seems that several people agree on that.
