ABSTRACT:
Lighting trim attaches to lamp housing by mating one or more trim attachment regions with respective housing attachment regions. Each trim attachment region includes a finger thereon. The finger ends in a downwardly curved lip. Each housing attachment region includes a slot and a detent sector adjacent to and in communication with the slot. The trim's finger and the housing's slot are dimensioned so that the finger can pass through the housing slot when they are aligned with each other. The finger's lip becomes seated into the housing detent sector upon subsequent rotation of the trim with respect to the housing.
