Abstract: A system that mounts a motor vehicle hood on a body of the vehicle includes a guide element to slidably guide the hood relative to the body in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle and a locking element to lock the hood to immobilize the hood relative to the body in a closed position, in which it seals off an engine compartment. The locking element assumes an activated state as a result of a sliding movement of the hood relative to the body in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle in a first direction. The guide element includes a self-centering element to self-center the hood relative to the body in a direction transverse to the vehicle while the hood slides in the first direction, and ensures that the closed position of the hood is a predetermined position in the transverse direction and is constant relative to the body.

Abstract: An arrangement for mounting a functional component on a motor vehicle bodywork element includes a trim clipped onto the bodywork element and provided with an outer flange bearing against an outer face of the bodywork element and a support to which the functional component is fixed. The support is clipped to the trim. The support includes a central boss to which the functional component is fixed. The boss is introduced into a housing of the trim so as to position the functional component opposite an opening formed in an end wall of the trim. The support also includes a dished formation inside which the boss is located. Peripheral edges of the dished formation are extended forward to contact and interact with an inner face of the bodywork element.
