  When removing the roof spoiler 20, if the bolt 24 is removed from the fastening portion 36, the fixture 30 is only caught on the outer plate 11 by the holding portion 40 and the engaging portion 42, and is thus extracted from the first opening 16. be able to. Then, the removed attachment 30 can be used again. The remaining openings 16 and 18 may be attached with a lid.

  Thus, by using the fixture 30, the roof spoiler 20 can be attached to the front side of the outer plate 11 in the vehicle body 10 by screw fastening. Since the screw fastening has a very high fastening strength as compared to the hook-and-groove hook structure and the hook hook structure described in the prior art, the roof spoiler 20 can be firmly held by the fixture 30. . Moreover, since the fixture 30 is the structure which fastens the volt | bolt 24 to the fastening part 36 which consists of nuts, it is not necessary to make a fastening part elastically deformable for the reception of the volt | bolt 24, and it comprises the whole with a metal. In addition, even if it is made of a synthetic resin, the rigidity can be set high. That is, the fixture 30 can increase the rigidity as a whole, and in particular, can increase the rigidity of the fastening portion 36 that is directly related to the holding of the roof spoiler 20. In addition, unlike the case where rubber or the like is used to elastically deform the fixture 30, it can be prevented from deteriorating over time, and durability can be increased. Therefore, according to the fixture 30, the roof spoiler 20 can be appropriately held over a long period of time, and the reliability is high. The fixture 30 can be easily disposed by inserting the body portion 32 from the first opening 16, and the hook portion 38 that cannot be inserted into the first opening 16 is formed in the body portion 32. Even if the hand is sometimes released, it will not be caught by the latch 38 and fall off from the first opening 16. That is, the attachment tool 30 is not dropped between the inner and outer plates of the vehicle body 10, and skill in the attachment work is not required.

  The fixture 30 includes a body portion 32 that is a main body, a fastening portion 36 that is provided on the body portion 32 and has a screw, and a latching portion 38 that is provided on the body portion 32 and is hooked on the first opening 16. It is sufficient if it is limited, and the configuration is simple. Moreover, the attachment tool 30 can comprise the trunk | drum 32 and the latching | locking part 38 from one plate-shaped body, can comprise the fastening part 36 with a general purpose nut, and can be manufactured at low cost. Even if the holding part 40 and the engaging part 42 are provided, the fixture 30 has a simple configuration in which the holding part 40 and the engaging part 42 are projecting pieces, and the plate-like body forming the body part 32 is pressed. By doing so, since the holding part 40 and the engaging part 42 can be formed, an increase in cost can be suppressed.

  The fitting 30 can fasten the bolt 24 by inserting the body portion 32 from the first opening 16 and aligning the fastening portion 36 provided in the insertion portion 32a of the body portion 32 with the second opening 18. It can be easily arranged with respect to the outer plate 11. In addition, the fixture 30 can maintain the posture by the latching portion 38, the holding portion 40, and the engaging portion 42 in an arrangement posture in which the fastening portion 36 is aligned with the second opening 18, and the bolt 24 is fastened. Easy to fasten to part 36. Further, in the fixture 30, the insertion portion 32a is inserted from the first opening 16 and positioned on the back side of the outer plate 11, and the protruding portion 32b protrudes from the first opening 16 to the front side and is positioned on the front side of the outer plate 11. Therefore, at least the trunk portion 32 is caught by the first opening 16 and the rotation around the fastening portion 36 is restricted. In the mounting tool 30 of the embodiment, the holding portion 40 and the engaging portion 42 are also caught by the first opening 16, and the rotation around the fastening portion 36 is restricted. That is, when the bolt 24 is tightened or removed from the fastening portion 36, the attachment tool 30 can be prevented from rotating together with the rotation of the bolt 24, and the bolt 24 can be easily attached and detached. Furthermore, the formation of the openings 16 and 18 in the outer plate 11, the arrangement of the fixture 30 and the screw fastening can all be performed from the front side of the outer plate 11, and from the inside of the vehicle body 10 to the attachment site of the roof spoiler 20. There is no need to access. That is, it is not necessary to set an opening in the interior member that forms the inside of the vehicle body 10, and the roof spoiler 20 can be easily retrofitted not only to the vehicle manufacturing process but also to the completed vehicle.

  Further, the bolt 24 that is inserted into the mounting hole 22 and fastened to the fastening portion 36 of the mounting tool 30 is received by the sleeve 26 via the washer 25, so that when the bolt 24 is tightened, the bolt 24 is hit and regulated. Sometimes it is easy to understand that the tightening state is appropriate, and it is easy to manage the tightening of the bolt 24. That is, overtightening or loosening of the bolt 24 can be prevented, and the roof spoiler 20 can be firmly held. In addition, as in the embodiment, by combining the metal sleeve 26 and the metal bolt 24, a so-called metal touch in which the metal members are in contact with each other can be achieved, and the tightening pressure can be increased. Can be held more firmly. Thus, since the screw fastening is possible by using the fixture 30, the metal touch that cannot be achieved by the mounting structure described in the related art can be obtained.
