Abstract

The present invention generally relates to the field of fasteners and in particular, to the field of fastening clips for attaching one or more components, such as airbag devices, to an external structure. More specifically, the present invention relates to a fastening clip assembly for attaching a side-impact airbag or curtain-type airbag to a vehicle structure. The clip assembly comprises a male member, having a first head portion, provided at a first proximal end along a first central axis, and a coupling portion, extending from said first head portion along said first central axis towards a first distal end. The assembly also comprises a female member, comprising a second head portion, provided at a second proximal end along a second central axis, a body portion, extending from said second head portion along said second central axis towards a second distal end, said body portion having a central aperture configured to couplingly receive said coupling portion of said male member and at least one elastically deflectable retaining member, adapted to fixingly engage when inserted into an orifice of the second component. At least one indicator member is provided, extending from said first head portion and away from said first central axis towards said first distal end, adapted to deflect laterally outward from a first position towards a second position and operably engage with said first head portion, when abuttingly engaged with an upper surface of said second head portion, during use.
