Abstract
The invention includes a system for fastening a planar element, which has a cut-out to a component, which has a borehole having a screw thread 5, including a fastening clip, which has a contact section having at least one contact plane for contacting a first side of the planar element facing away from the borehole, the fastening clip having an elastic first retaining element in a connection section, which first retaining element is connected to the contact section and is designed in such a way that, after the planar element 10 has been fastened, the first retaining element reaches through the cut-out of the planar element into the borehole when the contact plane lies on the first side of the planar element.
