Abstract
A sliding mount for a part made of plastics material and having at least one thin wall that is to be mounted in sliding manner on a support via its thin wall, the thin wall having an elongate opening therein with two longitudinal edges that are substantially parallel at least over a portion of their length, the mount comprising a spacer that is separate from the part, that is thicker than the thin wall, and that is suitable for sliding in the opening between the two longitudinal edges thereof. The spacer comprises an elastically deformable portion bearing slidably against the thin wall of the part when the spacer slides in the opening, the thin wall having a coupling shape organized in such a manner that when the spacer is in a privileged position relative to the opening, the deformable portion of the spacer couples with the thin wall.
