Vehicle body structure, vehicle having the structure, method for mounting steering column on vehicle body, and vehicle manufactured using the mounting method

摘要

An instrument panel (1) extends in the widthwise direction of a vehicle body, and is vertically separated into an upper panel (10) and a lower panel (11). A bolt member (9) for fastening a column-mounting bracket (6) and a column holder (7) is independently fixed to the column-mounting bracket (6) and to the column holder (7). In a state in which the bolt member (9) is fixed to the column holder (7), a first nut member is screwed onto a first externally-threaded portion from above the lower panel (11) mounted on the vehicle body, thereby fastening the column holder (7) to the column-mounting bracket (6).
