A clip cooperates with a fastener, such as a mounting screw, to hold the fastener securely in an object. The clip can be designed into the object or, for example, the objects designed to receive the clip. The construction of the clip not only allows an installer to "push" the fastener into the fastener-receiving hole a certain distance thereby obviating the need to screw all the threads to complete the installation, but also provides a greater holding force between the clip and the fastener, and thus the objects. The clip can also include one or more knife-edged tabs that engage the fastener.
