Abstract
A clip () for fixing an element with a groove which is defined by two parallel hook-in edges, includes a tab () which is designed such that on two planes () and () which are parallel to each other it can cooperate with the groove. The tab () has a first surface () and a second surface (). The first surface () extends completely set back with respect to the first plane () and in the thickness of the tab () to the second plane (). The second surface () extends completely protruding from the second plane () to the outside of the tab () and opposite the first surface (). The first surface () and the second surface () define an elastically deformable region. The volume defined by the second surface () and the second plane () is smaller than the volume defined by the first surface () and the first plane () or is equal to the same.
