  Let $k$ be a local field of characteristic 0, and let $G$ be a connected
semisimple almost $k$-algebraic group. Suppose rank$_kG\geq 1$ and $\rho$ is an
excellent representation of $G$ on a finite dimensional $k$-vector space $V$.
We construct uniform pointwise bounds for the $K$-finite matrix coefficients
restricted on $G$ of all unitary representations of the semi-direct product
$G\ltimes_\rho V$ without non-trivial $V$-fixed vectors. These bounds turn out
to be sharper than the bounds obtained from $G$ itself for some cases. As an
application, we discuss a simple method of calculating Kazhdan constants for
various compact subsets of the pair $(G\ltimes_\rho V,V)$.
