Abstract
A clip includes a housing with a passage opening and a closed frame where the housing is surrounded by the closed frame or the housing is a constituent part of the closed frame. The closed frame has two laterally running portions and the two laterally running portions are connected to one another by an arcuate portion which is formed opposite the housing. The closed frame has a spring action and is deformable elastically at a level of the two laterally running portions. A respective projection which protrudes from the clip and which is engageable at an intended assembly point with a hooking-behind action is formed on the two laterally running portions on an outer surface of the clip pointing away from the closed frame.
