ABSTRACT:
Provided is a fastener for temporarily securing a windshield to a vehicle body opening in a reliable manner without modifying the vehicle body structure. The base of the fastener is provided with an attaching surface adapted to be attached to a cooperating fastener on a major surface thereof, and a cavity is passed through the base substantially in parallel with the major surface. The clip may comprise a pair of clamping pieces bent from a strip of sheet metal, and one of the clamping pieces is pushed into the cavity to join the clamping piece with the base, and a flange of an opening of a vehicle body is pushed into the gap between the other clamping piece and the corresponding wall of the base. The clip may be appropriately provided with barbs to ensure secure engagement of the clip to both the base and the flange. The last mentioned wall of the base is preferably provided with a break so that the barbs provided in the clamping pieces may engage the two sides of the flange.
