Seat cover fastening clip

1. A clip for securing a cover to an opening defined in a base, the clip comprising:

a base defining a lower surface and an upper surface distal from the lower surface, the base further defining a cutout extending from the lower surface to the upper surface;

a first wall extending from the upper surface of the base of the clip and defining a first latch nail at a distal end of the first wall;

a second wall extending from the upper surface of the base and defining a second latch nail at a distal end of the second wall, the first latch nail and the second latch nail defining a gap therebetween at the distal end of each of the first wall and the second wall, the cutout defined in the base between the first wall and the second wall; and

fins respectively extending from the first wall and the second wall, wherein:

the first wall and the second wall are arranged so as to face to each other, and

the fins project outward with respect to a centerline axis of the clip and extend in a direction in which the first wall and the second wall face to each other.

2. The clip of claim 1 , wherein a portion of one of the first wall and the second wall crosses a plane defined by an edge of the cutout and extending in a direction parallel to the centerline axis of the clip.

3. The clip of claim 1 , wherein a minimum vertical material clearance distance defined between at least one of the fins and an upper surface of the base of the clip is equal to or less than 10 millimeters.

4. The clip of claim 1 , wherein the base of the clip defines a recess in at least a first end and a second end of the clip.

5. The clip of claim 1 , wherein the cutout defines an oblong shape.

6. The clip of claim 1 , further comprising a pair of guide rails, a first guide rail of the pair of guide rails defined in the first wall and a second guide rail of the pair of guide rails defined in the second wall; the first latch nail, the second latch nail, the first guide rail, and the second guide rail defining a suspender retention cavity.

7. The clip of claim 1 , wherein a lower surface of a first base member of the base of the clip is offset vertically from a lower surface of a second base member of the base of the clip by an offset distance.

8. The clip of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of each the first wall and the second wall is greater proximate to a proximal end of each of the first wall and the second wall, respectively, than a thickness of the corresponding wall proximate to a distal end of the corresponding wall.

9. The clip of claim 1 , wherein the cutout is defined between a first end and a second end of the clip without defining either of the first end or the second end.
