Abstract: Disclosed are fastening systems for coupling a first component to stud, shaft, or the like via a sleeve assembly. The fastening system comprising an upper sleeve component, a lower sleeve component, and a nut. The upper sleeve component defines an upper sleeve opening, while the lower sleeve component defines a lower sleeve opening. The lower sleeve component comprises one or more flexible tabs configured to engage the upper sleeve component via the component opening. The nut is configured to pass through a sleeve opening to engage the stud. The sleeve opening is defined by the upper sleeve opening and the lower sleeve opening.

Abstract: A compensating fastener assembly is configured to secure a fastener to a surface element. The compensating fastener assembly includes a compression limiter having a cylindrical main body and a flange, the cylindrical main body defining a channel and a longitudinal axis. The compensating fastener assembly further includes a spring defining a central passage. The central passage of the spring is configured to receive the main body of the compression limiter such that a first end of the spring is configured to be disposed adjacent the flange of the compression limiter.
