Claim 6:
7. A fastener assembly system comprising:
a component;
a chassis section comprising a slot;
a fastener clip, wherein the fastener clip comprises:
a top portion;
a first pair of legs and a second pair of legs, wherein the first pair of legs and the second pair of legs are coupled together by the top portion, wherein the first pair of legs and the second pair of legs are free to move apart from and closer to each other at a bottom end;
a first pair of wings and a second pair of wings, wherein each of the wings of the first pair of wings is attached along each of the legs of the first pair of legs, wherein each of the wings of the second pair of wings is attached along each of the legs of the second pair of legs, wherein each of the wings of the first pair of wings and each of the wings of the second pair of wings comprise ledges;
a first set of threads and a second set of threads, wherein the first set of threads is coupled to each of the legs of the first pair of legs forming a first half-barrel between the legs of the first pair of legs, and wherein the second set of threads is coupled to each of the legs of the second pair of legs forming a second half-barrel between the legs of the second pair of legs;
a screw;
wherein the fastener clip attaches to the slot in the chassis based at least upon:
the fastener clip being configured to be inserted into the slot and the first pair of wings and the second pair of wings bending inwards, the first pair of wings and the second pair of wings being configured to spring back out in response to the ledges reaching an inner edge of the slot in the chassis, and the ledges being over the inner edge of the slot in the chassis,
wherein the first half-barrel of the first set of threads and the second half-barrel of the second set of threads form a thread barrel, wherein the fastener clip is configured to couple the component to the chassis based at least upon the screw being coupled to the component and being screwed into the thread barrel.
