ABSTRACT:
A handle assembly, having a release handle mounted flush with a housing, is adapted for installation in a panel aperature from the outboard side of the panel. The housing is formed with a terminal flange provided with an upper omitted segment extending between a pair of handle pivot brackets. A retaining rib extends between the brackets and is offset inboard from the plane of the terminal flange backside. The handle is thus adapted to be mounted in the aperture in a rock-in manner with the terminal flange overlying the panel outer surface while the rib has an offset face abutting the panel inner surface. The housing has an inboard projecting stem supporting a one-piece retainer clip member enabling a single nut, upon being torqued down on the stem, to lock the handle assembly in the panel opening.
