Garnish Trim Mating Post

Snap Fit clips are a classic fastener used in the automotive industry, often attaching garnish trims on the dashboard, doors, and frunk. Metal fasteners can quickly get costly due to manufacturing fabrication. Metal clip designs cause a specific process in packaging which can lag down the assembly time. Due to the nature of this style of clips, it is known to have shorter longevity, less flexibility, and with heavy mass added to the material. 

Nifco Design

Snap Fit clips are a classic fastener used in the automotive industry. These small packaging space-style fasteners often attach garnish trims on the dashboard and doors. This creates a high-end, luxury feel to all OEMs. The mating post and the fastener must complement one another to prevent noise, vibration, and harshness, commonly known as NVH. Nifco's design of the mating post has been engineered for easy manufacturing without the loss of stability. Our patent-pending design allows for a 40N installation with an 80N serviceable removal.
