Abstract:
1. An adjuster for pivotally adjusting two vehicle parts relative to each other, the adjuster comprising a spindle pivotally arranged at a first of the two vehicle parts about a first pivot axis, an adjusting gear unit including a gear unit housing and being in engagement with the spindle via a spindle nut, and a holder arranged at a second of the two vehicle parts, wherein the holder supports the adjusting gear unit on the second vehicle part about a second pivot axis in that the holder at least partly encloses the gear unit housing of the adjusting gear unit in a circumferential direction about the second pivot axis, wherein the holder is formed by a plastic retaining clip which is formed U-shaped with two lateral legs and a base connecting the legs, wherein the plastic retaining clip includes two first bearing surfaces at its legs, wherein the two first bearing surfaces are diametrically opposed to the second pivot axis and provide a plain bearing for supporting the adjusting gear unit in that the first bearing surfaces are formed by portions of a cylinder shell surface concentric to the second pivot axis, wherein the gear unit housing of the adjusting gear unit slidingly rests against the first bearing surfaces so that the adjusting gear unit is pivotally mounted between the legs, wherein the plastic retaining clip is connected with a holding element of the second vehicle part via a screw connection and includes at least one mounting bore which extends longitudinally in a plane vertical to the second pivot axis.
