An elastomeric latch damper for a vehicle closure striker assembly 100 has a damper portion 4 for engagement with a latch, and a covering member 6 integrally connected to the damper portion by a live hinge (8, fig.1). In use the damper is mounted to a striker bracket having a striker plate portion (104, fig.2B) attached to a vehicle by means of fasteners in a mounting region of the striker plate portion. When the striker bracket is being fitted, adjusted or removed, the covering member 6 is raised to allow access to the mounting region. After fitting and adjustment, the covering member 6 is lowered to cover the striker plate portion and the fasteners. The cover may have two apertures 26 connected by a slit 28 to allow passage of a staple striker 110.
