Abstract

A snapless boot cover for the storage compartment of a convertible-type vehicle has a laminated main body portion which fits over the compartment. A grommet is secured to the main body portion by a U-shaped hinge portion and has a pair of opposed resilient lips which form a channel therebetween. A continuous bead formed in the storage compartment fits within the channel and cooperates with the grommet to provide a snapless retainer boot cover.
