Abstract
A retention system for temporarily joining vehicle elements to one another includes a first vehicle element integral meshing surface and a second vehicle element integral cooperating meshing surface. The first vehicle element integral meshing surface and the second vehicle element integral cooperating meshing surface are adapted to engage one another to at least temporarily prevent separation of the first vehicle element from the second vehicle element. The integral meshing surface and integral cooperating meshing surface may each be defined by meshing tooth structures. The plurality of meshing tooth structures may be disposed in an aligned configuration. The system finds use in joining vehicle elements such as wrapped armrest trim pieces and armrests during vehicle assembly. Methods for temporarily joining vehicle elements using the described retention system are provided.
