Trim panel having a clip retention feature |
摘要 |
A trim panel having a clip retention feature is provided. The trim panel is mounted to a support structure of an automotive vehicle by a clip. The clip includes a first flange at one end of the clip and a second flange spaced apart from the first flange. The trim panel includes an inner surface facing a passenger compartment of the automotive vehicle and an opposite outer surface facing the door. A housing having an attachment wall extends from the outer surface towards the door. The attachment wall includes an aperture and a slot extending from the aperture to an edge of the attachment wall for receiving the portion of a clip located between a first flange and second flange. A retention step extends from a bottom side of the attachment wall to restrain the clip within the attachment wall due to contact between an edge of the first flange and the retention step. |
