ABSTRACT:
A tubular cap-like retainer 20 fits within a supporting structure 10 and has a side wall 22 with a pair of slits 23 formed in a parallel manner to define a flexible arm 24. Both ends of the arm 23 are attached to the retainer 20. A locking projection 25 formed on the inner face of the arm engages a cavity member 11 within the structure 10 thus urging the arm against the inner surface of the structure 10 with a strong retention force.
