Abstract: A recessed lighting fixture including a housing having spaced apart generally vertical walls defining an interior and an open bottom end. The walls have generally vertical slots through them. The fixture has lip means for maintaining the bottom end of the housing against a lower surface of a ceiling. The fixture further includes a plurality of mounting members disposed on an exterior surface of the wall means. Each of these mounting members has a first end, an outwardly curved elongated body portion made of resilient material and a second end. The first end of each mounting member is attached to the housing near the bottom end of the housing. The second end of the mounting member extends at least partially through the slot into the interior of the fixture so that at least a portion of the second end is accessible from the interior through the open bottom end.
