    Abstract: A torque fitting is molded onto a visor rod end which has a support flange which engages one side of a mounting plate and includes at least one locking tab spaced axially from the flange. A locking clip fits over the torque fitting from an end opposite the flange and includes a locking dog which engages the locking tab on the molded-on torque fitting. The clip includes axially spaced pairs of locking legs having corners which wedge against a surface of the mounting plate opposite the torque fitting flange to provide a tensile force between the locking tab on the torque fitting and the flange to securely hold the torque fitting in position.
