ABSTRACT:
A striker used between a vehicle component and a vehicle body member includes a homogenous polymeric striker body. The body includes a first portion having opposed first and second sides, and a raised mid-body between the first and second sides. A second portion is oriented at an angle with respect to the first portion. The second portion includes first and second mounting wings and a bumper receiving portion positioned between the mounting wings. A resilient bumper is engaged with the second portion extending partially over the inclined surface. The raised mid-body defines a substantially planar, inclined surface continuously increasing in elevation with respect to the first and second sides between a first portion free end and a first and second portion intersection. The second portion has at least one rectangular-shaped cavity created on a vehicle body engaging side adapted to non-rotatably receive a geometrically configured fastener.
