Abstract
A purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a clip including a grommet and a pin, which does not degrade design quality and allows the clip to be removed easily from members to be attached without causing damage. The grommet is configured to be inserted into attachment holes of the members to be attached, and includes a grommet hole into which a pin is to be inserted. Depending on an insertion position of the pin relative to the grommet, the grommet undergoes elastic deformation to allow the members to be attached to each other or detached from each other. A flange portion of the grommet has an engagement hole so that the clip can be removed from the members by engaging a tool with the engagement hole.
