Lock Rod Bezel
This is a plastic sleeve that snaps into the underside of the beltline of the door onto the actual “Class A” lock rod bezel. This sleeve Termax created addressed several issues the “Class A” bezel had on its own:
Improved Retention
The “Class A” bezel by itself is plastic snaps or fins attaching to a plastic substrate. At times the lock rod would function up and down and pop the “Class A” bezel out of the door. The “Class B” bezel Termax created prevents this from occurring.
Improved Lead In
The “Class A” bezel by itself has almost no lead in for the OEM operator to fish the lock rod through the door trim during installation. The “Class B” bezel Termax created provides ample lead in for the operators.
Belt Line Clips
Weld flanges are typically located at the edges of trim parts where key fit and finish measurements are found. The weld flanges are not typically friendly to attachments, but beltline clips have become the exception. By switching the slot from the s/m body to the trim part Termax has created an extremely robust clip solution for weld flange attachments.
Magnet Plate Attachment
As more and more vehicles have started to use aluminum in the body, Termax has had to develop an alternate way for magnets to be attached. In order to allow for the use of a magnet on aluminum Termax has created a snap in steel plate to be used as a magnetic surface.
Screwless High Retention Clips
Traditionally high retention clips in the vehicle will have a visible screw or screw cap cover. To many, the visible screw and screw cap covers are unsightly. In response to this Termax developed a high retention clip that provides the high extraction without unwanted visible dissatisfiers. This was done by creating high retention clip that would be snapped into a doghouse like a plastic birds beak, and serviced out of the same feature.
