Abstract (en)

An elastomeric latch damper (2) for a vehicle closure striker assembly (100) has a damper portion (4) for engagement with a latch, and a covering member (6) integrally connected to the damper portion by a live hinge (8). In use the damper (2) is mounted to a striker bracket (102) having a striker plate portion (104) attached to a vehicle by means of fasteners in a mounting region (111, 111') of the striker plate portion. When the striker bracket is being fitted, adjusted or removed, the covering member (6) is raised to allow access to the mounting region. After fitting and adjustment, the covering member (6) is lowered to cover the striker plate portion and the fasteners. The latch may be mounted to a closure, and the striker to the body, or vice versa. Advantage: neat and consistent finish without additional component(s).
