18-, ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE:, A toilet seat hinge has elongated male connector portions provided with saw-toothed shaped upper and lower surfaces which are inserted in female openings in the rear surface of a soft toilet seat and a soft toilet seat cover. The male connector portions lockingly engage with lock lugs provided in a rigid molded bed plate in the seat and cover to prevent retention so that the hinge is permanently connected to the seat and cover following insertion of the male connector member. Another aspect of the invention resides in a novel molding method in which two movable mold components provide openings extending both vertically and horizontally in a molded item.
