A clip (1) comprises a pin (7) including a flange (10) and a shank (11), and a bush (9) including a flange (13) and a shank (14) and having a hollow configuration to receive the pin shank (11). The bush shank is inserted into holes of a plurality of attachment members including panels to be connected with each other. Then, the pin shank is inserted into the hollow bush shank to enlarge the diameter of the bush shank so as to connect the attachment members each other by the enlarged bush shank and the bush flange. The bush shank (14) includes a plurality of longitudinally extending legs (31) which are divided in the circumferential direction of the bush shank. Each of the legs (31) includes a thin wall portion, which extends longitudinally from the root portion of the leg adjacent to the bush flange to the intermediate portion (34) of the leg. The thin wall potion has a thickness less than that of the other leg portion extending longitudinally from the intermediate portion (34) to the end of the leg. Each of the legs (31) is formed with a slit (37) extending from the root portion to substantially the intermediate portion and having a length greater than the maximum thickness of the attachment members. |
