The skin part edges include spaced-apart slots (39) for receiving locating flanges (44c, 46g, 46h) formed on opposed end stiles (41, 42, 44). Snap together hinge parts (30) are provided with bosses cooperating with slots formed in the stiles (41, 42, 44) for locating the hinge parts (30) and the stiles (41, 42, 44) to the skin parts. The hinge parts (30) include cooperating pins (74) and receiving bores with bore portions being formed in part by elastically deflectable fingers whereby the hinge parts (30) are snapped together during assembly by stacking one panel (28) atop of another.
