1. A latching mechanism for removably attaching an accessory to an offroad vehicle without requiring tools, the latching mechanism comprising:
a body receivable at least partially in a mounting recess of the offroad vehicle such that the body is held against rotation by the mounting recess;
a shaft extending through the body, pivotable about a rotational axis;
a handle for rotating the shaft relative to the body, the handle extending on an upper side of the body so as to be hand manipulatable by a user while the body is at least partially in the mounting recess;
an oblong head rotatable by the shaft about the rotational axis, the head extending on a lower side of the body and rotatable to a position where the head secures the body relative to the mounting recess; and
a spring system for biasing the head axially, such that the head can be moved either upwardly or downwardly from a balanced elevation, and when moved upwardly relative to the body the head is moved against a downward biasing force of the spring system and when moved downwardly relative to the body the head is moved against an upward biasing force of the spring system.
