ABSTRACT:
A stabilization system for stabilizing an openable member of a motor vehicle relative to vehicle structure of the motor vehicle when in a closed position. The stabilization system includes a first member for mounting on one of the openable member or the vehicle structure and a second member for mounting on the other of the openable member or the vehicle structure. The first member includes a generally solid base portion for mounting on the one of the openable member or the vehicle structure and a generally hollow outer portion. The second member includes a base portion for mounting on the other one of the openable member or the vehicle structure and a tapered outer portion. The tapered outer portion is pressed against the hollow outer portion of the first member when the openable member is in the closed position such that the hollow outer portion winks over the tapered outer portion of the second member and secures the second member thereagainst to prevent movement of the second member in at least two directions with respect to the first member.
