ABSTRACT:
A combination linear spring clip and capturing guide retains a reflector to a ceiling lighting fixture, which has a mounting frame secured in a ceiling, wherein the mounting frame includes an opening to accommodate the reflector. One or more capturing guides are mounted on an upper surface of the mounting frame surrounding the opening. Each capturing guide extends radially from a center of the opening. Respective springs are linearly slidable within the respective capturing guides, with a portion of each spring extending out of each capturing guide. Each linear spring clip engages an outer surface of the light fixture reflector to secure it in place, allowing the mounting of reflectors of varying size.
