Abstract
An alternative attaching arrangement for a seat structure side shield panel providing ready installation and positive retention of the panel. An existing integral raised C-shaped connector, molded on the inner surface of the side shield panel, is adapted to engage an outwardly extending slotted pivot pin of the recliner apparatus of certain seat structures. An oversize seat structure, however, requires modification to accommodate the side shield panel. The present invention provides a unique U-shaped add-on metal clip which is readily snap-fitted on the C-shaped connector at a predetermined locked orientation so as to releasably engage the slotted pivot pin of the oversize seat structure.
