Abstract
A reflector and of a holding-plate slidingly attach to each other to form a flangeless trim assembly. The reflector may be removably attached to a spackle-frame. The spackle-frame may be installed within ceiling drywall around a hole for a downlight. The holding-plate may be attached to a lighting module. In a default resting configuration, a top of the reflector butts up against a bottom of the holding-plate because springs push these two parts towards each other. When an opposing force is applied that is greater than the spring's force, then a variable gap is formed between the reflector and the holding-plate, but while the reflector and the holding-plate are still attached to each other. This gap may be used by human finger(s) to both disengage the reflector from the spackle-frame and to pull down the reflector, the holding-plate, and the lighting module from the spackle-frame—all without tools.
