A recessed light fixture mountable to a panel. The panel defines a panel aperture extending therethrough. The recessed light fixture includes a housing, the housing defining an end wall and a side wall extending from the end wall. The side wall defines a side wall edge substantially opposed to the end wall. The housing further defines a housing flange extending substantially peripherally and outwardly from the side wall substantially adjacent the side wall edge. A retaining clip is mounted to the housing. The retaining clip includes a clip mounting element mounted to the housing. A clip body is also included in the retaining clip and defines a retaining flange. The retaining flange is located outside of the housing in a substantially parallel and spaced apart relationship relatively to the housing flange when the retaining clip is mounted to the housing in an operative configuration. An actuator is operatively coupled to the clip mounting element and to the clip body for moving the clip body and the clip mounting element relatively to each other so as to vary a retaining flange-to-housing flange distance between the retaining flange and the housing flange. When the housing is mounted through the panel aperture with the panel positioned between the housing and retaining flanges, using the actuator to move the clip body relatively to the clip mounting element moves the retaining flange relatively to the housing flange to allow the attachment of the light fixture to the panel by pinching the panel between the housing flange and the retaining flange.
