Abstract

A lock unit or assembly for mounting on an aperture in a panel of a motor vehicle consists of a housing and a retaining sleeve which are held against relative rotation. The housing and sleeve are fitted together into the aperture and are then rotated to bring a projecting lug on the sleeve into a retaining position whereupon relative axial movement is effected between the housing and sleeve to effect resilient interengagement between cooperating formations on the housing and sleeve to hold the sleeve and housing against movement relative to each other or to the panel.
