Vinyl soffit j channel attachment v2

A 2 piece clip system when placed together create a non-permanent way to hang year around pixel lights, mounted in J-channel, to the eaves (soffit actually I guess) of your house. The attachment created when the two pieces are slide together snaps into the groove of your vinyl soffit.

I wanted something that could be printed fast and without support that performed 3 functions:

1. Would hold the J-channel with pixel lights to the soffits of the house
2. Would support the loaded J-channel from sagging under the weight of the system
3. Could be attached to the J-channel on the ground and not fall off when on the ladder installing the light system.

Inspiration came from FishingSETX's "Amazon Blink Camera Mount for Vinyl Siding" (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4163845). However the attachment was not the correct shape for my soffit.
