Abstract: The device includes a number of slotted channels extending rearwardly from back of the releasable door and which are open through a slot through an outer extremity and at each end. There is a mounting substrate in the instrument panel having holes in it. There are H-rib fastening members each having an H-shaped head which is adapted to be inserted and slipped into either end of one of the channels in the door for the positioning and releasable retention of the fastening members in the door. Each of the H-rib fastening members has a mounting shank extending downwardly from the H-shaped head and adapted to extend through the slot in an outer extremity of the channel and to fit in a hole in the mounting substrate. There is a resilient clip mounted on the mounting shank of the H-rib fastening member for insertion into one of the holes in the mounting substrate for locking the H-rib fastening member in place in the mounting substrate. Inflation of the airbag causes the H-rib head to release from the channel, thereby freeing the door from engagement with the H-rib fastening member to thereby enable the door to be released from the instrument panel.
