Abstract
An optical element assembly includes at least first and second optical elements. Each element has molded extensions to assist in the mounting. A pair of pins extend from the extensions on one element and fit into a pair of openings on the extensions of the other element. A clip having a hole in one leg to fit over the pin is positioned to urge each set of extensions together to prevent axial movement of one element with respect to the other.
