Abstract: A fastening system fastens a radiator, an electric fan support and a fan shroud as a single unit. The radiator has lower and upper posts to which slotted plates protruding from the fan support and fan shroud fit over. A structural sandwich is formed with the fan support lying between the radiator and the fan shroud. A flexible lever arm with a locking tab lies adjacent to the upper post of the radiator and connects to the radiator. When the fan support is fitted over the posts, the top plate of the electric fan support locks under the first lever arm tab. The fan shroud also has two slotted plates that also fit over the posts of the radiator. The fan shroud locks into place when a lever arm with a tab on the fan shroud locks under a tab that protrudes from the top plate of the fan support.

Abstract: A foldable seat assembly for an automotive vehicle including a base mounted by rollers in a track in a floor structure of a vehicle passenger compartment including support legs at the forward end of the vehicle seat assembly, the upper end of the forward legs being mounted pivotally to a lower frame of the vehicle seat portion and the lower end of the forward leg being assembled in a track in a foot well of the floor structure. Rear legs supporting the lower seat portion are joined to a roller assembly in a track located in the passenger compartment at a level above the level of the foot well. A driver-operated linkage mechanism at the rearward end of the lower seat portion unlocks the seat back portion, allowing it to fold over the lower seat portion. The driver-operated linkage mechanism at the forward end of the lower seat portion allows the seat assembly to move forward pivoting at the lower end of the front leg and downwardly for storage in the foot well as the forward legs pivot at their lower ends.
