<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve efficiency of grommet fitting and removing jobs to and from a body panel. SOLUTION: The internal circumference of an expanded diameter cylindrical portion 11b of a grommet (11) is provided with a fixing member 15 which is formed of annular rigid material and forms a female-thread engaging portion 15a at the internal circumference portion. Meanwhile, a fitting cylindrical portion 14a is formed by projecting the edge portion of a through-hole 14a of the body panel 14 to the fitting side of the grommet (11) and a male-thread engaging projected line 14c to be engaged with the engaging portion 15a of the fixing member 15 is formed at the external circumference of the fitting cylindrical portion 14a. A seal portion 11c at the end face of the expanded diameter cylindrical portion 11b is elastically placed in contact with the body panel 14 by engaging the fixing member 15 of the grommet 11 to the fitting cylindrical portion 14.</p> |
