johnr,
I think that you should go to a couple of car dealer showrooms and and take a look under the hoods. That is where I believe your best ideas will come from.

Are you talking about metal clips molded in a plastic body? Not hard to do at all. make sure the mold can seal off on the metal clip when you injection mold the plastic, so that there is no leakage of plastic over areas you don't want.
Or you can assemble pre-molded plastic bodies to the metal clip and ultrasonic weld together.
There are a lot of ways , depends on you design and customer's requirements, etc.

Johnr,
The GE site is good for what you need for the design of snaps....
I'd advise you to print it all out as it is a good reference.
You will have to register to access though.
