Claim Text:
1. A mounting system for attachment between a first external component and a second external component, comprising: an interior arm extending along a longitudinal axis and having a plurality of first apertures therethrough at spaced apart intervals and being aligned with one another in a single row along the longitudinal axis, the interior arm having first and second spaced apart and substantially parallel faces, to which the first apertures are open, and first and second side walls extending between the faces; an exterior arm extending along a longitudinal axis and configured to be coupled with the interior arm, the exterior arm further including a second aperture configured to align with at least one first aperture of the interior arm when the interior arm is arranged for coupling with the exterior arm, the exterior arm including a first mounting means disposed toward a first end thereof and configured to facilitate attachment between the exterior arm and the second external component; and first and second fixation elements, first fixation element configured to extend through one of the first apertures in the interior arm and engage with the first external component, and the second fixation element configured to extend through the second aperture of the exterior arm and through another of the first apertures in the interior arm when the interior arm is arranged for coupling with the exterior arm so as to at least partially maintain a position of the exterior arm relative to the first external component, wherein the first external component defines a face extending in first and second lateral directions to edges surrounding the face, and wherein the first and second fixation elements are configured to engage with threaded apertures positioned at predetermined intervals along the face remote from the edges such that the interior arm extends along the face, and wherein the first mounting means is positionable laterally beyond one of the edges from the face by adjustment of the exterior arm relative to the longitudinal axis of the interior arm such that the second external component does not overlie the face.
