An apparatus is adapted for attaching to an article, wherein the apparatus comprises a housing (500) having a molded locking feature (510) substantially adjacent to a guide (550). A clip is mounted on the main housing (500), wherein the clip (508) further comprises a pin (506) having first and second ends, and a holder (860) adapted for mounting on the housing (500) via the guide (550), and having first and second shoulders (542, 540), each shoulder having a boss for receiving the pin therethrough. A member (508) has a third shoulder (532) having a boss for receiving the pin therethrough and has a fourth shoulder (530) having a sealed boss for receiving the pin thereat. The third shoulder (532) is substantially aligned and adjacent to the first shoulder (542) and the fourth shoulder (530) is substantially aligned and adjacent to the second shoulder (540) such that the first end of the pin is inserted through the boss of the first, second, and third shoulders and partially into the sealed boss of the fourth shoulder thus holding the member (508) and the holder (860) together. The clip attaches to the housing (500) at the guide (550) such that the second end of the pin pushes against an inside surface of the molded locking feature (510) wherein the pin is held in position between an inside surface of the sealed boss and the inside surface of the molded locking feature (550).
