The post is formed with a cavity into which there is inserted a resilient retaining member having tapered barbs extending outwardly of the post from opposite sides thereof. When the post is thereafter inserted into the aperture, the retaining member is compressed and the barbs engage the interior walls of the aperture to prevent subsequent removal of the post therefrom.
