ABSTRACT:
A glider block assembly for a window regulator in a motor vehicle structure includes a glider block and a spring clip adapted to receive a pin with an engaging head extending from a window lift plate. The glider block has an opening sized to receive the pin and a guide pin slot intersecting the opening. The spring clip is disposed in the spring clip slot and provides an entry gap smaller than the engaging head. The clip extends in part across the opening to provide an entry gap smaller than the engaging head. The spring clip expands to allow the engaging head to pass therethrough in response to pressure of the head thereagainst when the pin is received by the block and snaps back behind the head, thereby retaining the plate to the block.
