An electrical assembly includes a housing at a front side of a panel that extends between mating and receiving ends. The mating end extends through an opening of the panel from the front side to a rear side of the panel. A mounting clip extends between a front end and a rear end and includes a passage therethrough that receives the mating end of the housing. First and second sides of the body define the passage and includes a locking feature extending therefrom the first side into the passage. The clip moves between unlocked and locked positions by sliding the rear end of the clip along the rear side of the panel and the body is flexed outward to allow the locking feature to bypass the housing. The mating end of the housing is coupled with an electrical connector in a locking operation to secure the housing to the panel.
