ABSTRACT:
A transversely resilient retaining clip for securing a trim strip over an automobile rocker panel weld flange without requiring screws or adhesive. The trim strip is retained by the resilient clip and a weatherstrip carrier member having a recess disposed longitudinally over the flange. The resilient clip and weatherstrip member cooperate to securely retain the trim strip in a predefined spaced relationship with the weld flange such that it covers the flange and weatherstrip carrier as well as overlies the vehicle carpet.
