An automotive window assembly of the type having a modular window assembly consisting of a pane of glass surrounded by an elastomeric molding insertable into a rabbet flanged aperture in an automobile body to be adhesively secured thereto, the modular window assembly being positioned with respect to the aperture by a plurality of clip members operatively disposed between the modular window assembly and the aperture, each clip member comprising an integrally formed resilient unitary member including: a base portion abuttingly engaging and fixedly secured to the glass pane proximate its periphery; a positioning leg portion extending perpendicularly from the base portion away from the glass pane; and a locking leg portion comprising a locking leg extending at an acute angle in cantilever fashion from the positioning leg portion and having a curvilinearly extending locking surface formed at its free end for engagement with an inner peripheral surface of the body aperture upon insertion of the modular window assembly toward the aperture, the locking leg being inwardly deflectable toward the positioning leg portion during the insertion and being resiliently urged toward locking engagement with the peripheral surface.
