Abstract
A fixing clip fixes a member to a body panel and includes a bushing and a lock pin. The bushing includes a head and a leg. The lock pin includes a load receiving portion including a load receiving surface which receives a part of a reaction force of a drawing-out load loaded on the fixing clip from a body panel, when the drawing-out load acts on the fixing clip from the member. The bushing includes a pressure receiving surface for receiving the part of the reaction force of the drawing-out load which the lock pin has received. The drawing-out load thus can be received by both the bushing and the lock pin. As a result, an endurability of the fixing clip against the drawing-out load is improved by an amount of the load which the lock pin shares, so that the drawing-out load can be increased.
