With continued reference to fig. 3 and 4, the back panel 40 includes a back panel substrate 41 and back panel sidewalls 42 that meet one another to enclose a generally L-shaped structure. The dash substrate 41 abuts against the first dash overlapping portion 141 of the dash overlapping portion 14 of the tail light mounting bracket 10, and the dash side wall 42 abuts against the second dash overlapping portion 142. The back panel 40 and back panel lap 14 may also be fixedly connected using a resistance welding and/or laser welding process. In one or more embodiments, 3 welding gun through holes 411 are formed on the back panel substrate 41 and are spaced apart from each other, so that a welding gun can conveniently pass through the welding gun through holes 411 to perform welding operation when the whole vehicle is assembled, additional arc welding equipment is avoided, the welding process is simplified, and equipment investment is reduced. Alternatively, the number of the via holes 411 may be set to other suitable numbers more or less than 3, such as 2, 4, etc. In one or more embodiments, the fourth rear protection bracket mounting hole 412 is provided in the back panel substrate 41 to cooperate with the first rear protection bracket mounting hole 11141, the second rear protection bracket mounting hole 11151, and the third rear protection bracket mounting hole 11241 to further enhance the reliability of the rear mounting bracket attachment.

Continuing with fig. 3 and 4, in one or more embodiments, the top of the side panel cover 50 overlaps the side panel cover overlap 15 of the tail lamp mounting bracket 10 and the right side edge of the side panel cover 50 is overlapped by the left side edge of the back panel side wall 42 of the back panel 40. The side panel cover 50, the tail light mounting bracket 10 and the back panel 40 may be fixedly connected by resistance welding and/or laser welding. With the above arrangement, the side panel cover 50, the tail lamp mounting bracket 10 and the back panel 40 can be firmly connected to form a stable structure.

So far, the technical solution of the present invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments shown in the drawings, but it is easily understood by those skilled in the art that the scope of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Equivalent changes or substitutions can be made on the related technical features by those skilled in the art without departing from the principle of the invention, and the technical scheme after the changes or substitutions will fall into the protection scope of the invention.
