Zusammenfassung:	A connection assembly adapted to join a surface element (12) to an underlying support structure (14) while maintaining a substantially zero gap abutting relation between the surface element and the support structure. The connection assembly includes a press-in retainer (10) with a circumferential seal (50) having a sealing foot (54). The sealing foot flexes about a living hinge (56) while maintaining continuous sliding contact with the support panel without interfering with downward movement of the retainer.
