At least one of the first portion and the second portion pivots between a closed position in which at least one of the first portion and the second portion is mechanically locked to the projection and an open position enabling the projection to be separated from the member. The member engages the second component to couple the first component to the second component. The second component engages the member to retain the member in the closed position.
