The procedure for joining two components (1, 2), e.g. for attaching a component to a vehicle trim strip, uses a plastic or other soft self-hardening material (3) inserted into adjoining cavities in the two components, one of which is undercut to ensure a reliable fixing. The plastic or soft material is poured or molded in the cavities and allowed to set to form a reliable fixing. The undercut cavity can be made in a variety of shapes, including dovetail or hooked section, and it can be used to hold one end of a fastener that receives the second component. The plastic material, preferably a plastomer or elastomer, can be applied manually or with a pneumatic tool and can, where necessary, be heated to harden it. |
