ABSTRACT:
A modular visor attachment fastener (10) secures a visor mounting bracket (90) to an automobile frame (62) with a headliner (80) disposed therebetween. The fastener (10) includes a plurality of equilaterally disposed mounting latches (30) which are received in slots (74) provided in the frame (62). Each mounting latch includes a tab (36) in juxtaposition to a leg (44) with a fastening aperture (32) disposed therebetween. Each leg (44) is deflectably mounted to the frame (62). Insertion of a pin-type fastener (110) through the bracket (90) and into the fastening aperture (32) deflects a flat portion (50) of the leg (44) to further secure the fastener (10) to the frame (62). The fastener (10) may also be provided with concentrically disposed stand-off ribs (26) to properly position the fastener (10) and re-distribute harmful torque forces.
