Clip assembly for adjustably attaching a cladding to a vehicle

摘要

A clip assembly mounts a cladding panel to a body. The clip assembly includes a clip and a key guide. The clip has a head and a shaft. The head is adapted for attaching to a flange of the cladding panel. The key guide has a hollow body sized to receive and retain the shaft in a first and second engagement position. The key guide is configured to be inserted into a slot on the body structure and upon rotation is retained within the slot. One end of the cladding engages the pilot aperture and an opposite end engages a slot. The cladding is adjustable relative to the body structure while in a first engagement position and is held in place for further fastening when in a second engagement position.
