Roof panel mounting structure.

摘要

A roof panel mounting structure through which a roof panel is fixedly mounted on a vehicle body. The roof panel (2) mounting structure (11) is comprised of a roof rail (4) forming part of the vehicle body. The roof rail is constructed of inner and outer panels which are joined with each other to form a hollow therebetween. A reinforcement member is fixedly disposed in a manner to traverse the hollow of the roof rail. The roof panel is made of plastic and integrally formed with a boss section (8) projecting downwardly. A mounting bolt is inserted in the boss section and projects downwardly from the boss section. The boss section passes through the outer panel and projects downwardly near the reinforcement member, so that the mounting bolt is fixedly secured to the reinforcement member thereby to securely mount the roof panel on the vehicle body.
