A clip capable of firmly securing an EA member even if the thickness of a component such as a vehicle-body sheet metal panel is changed, an EA member provided with the clip, and a structure for securing the EA member are provided. A clip 20 has a flange 21 to be positioned at the surface of an EA member, a shaft 22 projecting from the flange 21 toward an EA-member side, an anchor 23 spreading from an end of the shaft 22 and to be embedded in the EA member, a cut 24 provided in the anchor 23, and a locking section 30 projecting from the flange 21 on a side opposite the shaft 22. The locking section 30 has a cylindrical upright segment 31 standing upright from the flange 21, and a locking piece 32 projecting laterally from the side surface of the upright segment 31 and resiliently thrustable and retractable in its projecting direction. To secure an EA member 1 to a body sheet metal panel 2A or 2B, the EA member 1 is put on the body sheet metal panel 2A or 2B while the clip 20 is inserted into a hole 4 provided in the body sheet metal panel 2A or 2B. After a most projecting point 40 has passed through the hole 4, the EA member 1 is held by the body sheet metal panel. |
