Abstract
A fastening element for fastening a first component to a second component. The fastening element includes an elastically deformable body and an elongated actuating member. The actuating member is movably guided relative to the body to be selectively movable further into or further out of the body. The body is configured to be elongated by moving the actuating member further into the body and applying a corresponding load onto the body and to elastically deform back by moving the actuating member further out of the body and releasing the load applied thereto. Further, the body is configured to have a smaller outer diameter when correspondingly elongated than when non-elongated and/or deformed back.
