Abstract
An assembly for aligning a component, comprising an alignment guide positioned on a first device and at least one attachment point on the first device. The component is included in a second device, and the component is aligned by the alignment guide as the second device is attached to the first device. A flexible portion of material can be attached to the component and positioned over the mounting structures. The alignment guides retain the flexible portion of material with respect to the mounting structures as the second device is attached to the first device, thereby aligning the component in three dimensions.
