Abstract

The invention relates to a plastic part having at least one thin wall, and designed to be slidably mounted on a support by its thin wall and having, in this thin wall: an elongate through-opening, having two lengthwise edges that are substantially parallel at least over part of their length; a spacer whose thickness is greater than that of the thin wall, able to slide in the opening between the two lengthwise edges thereof; and means of holding the spacer to the support while keeping the spacer inside the opening. Spacer can be connected to thin wall by deformable or breakable links.
