ABSTRACT:
A one-piece, molded plastic wire retainer clip is provided for supporting flexible, axially shiftable insulated electric wires on an automobile steering column. The clip comprises a flat base, a pine-tree fastener extending from the bottom of the base for insertion in a mounting hole in the steering column wherein it is frictionally secured, a projection extending upwardly from the base and engageable with an abutment on the steering column to prevent rotation of the clip, and a wire retainer portion supported on the projection. The wire retainer portion comprises opposing side walls, one joined at its lower end to the projection and both joined at the top by an end wall, and the other having a free lower end. The walls cooperate to define a channel open at both ends and having an opening along its bottom side which confronts the base. The free end of the other side wall is resiliently flexible and is movable outwardly away from the one side wall to enable a wire to be inserted laterally through the opening and into the channel, whereafter it biases toward the one side wall to narrow the opening and prevent the wire from falling out of the channel. The resiliently flexible side enables the wire to be intentionally moved laterally out of the channel through the opening.
