ABSTRACT:
An assembly for mounting a vehicle sunshade in a panel opening comprises a first mounting member that receives a sunshade mounting shaft to permit rotation thereof. A second mounting member closely receives the first mounting member. A plurality of resilient legs extend from the second mounting member. The legs are arranged to extend into the panel opening to retain the second mounting member in the panel opening. Cooperating surfaces on the interior of the legs define an axially outer first position of engagement and an axially inner second position of axial engagement. The first position prevents radial inward deflection of the legs to retain the first mounting member in the panel opening and the second position permits radial inward deflection to allow removal of the second mounting member from the panel opening.
