Molding attaching structure, molding attaching clip, and molding

A molding attaching clip for attaching a molding to a panel by being engaged with the molding to be fitted along a concave groove formed in the panel so as to cover the groove from outside, the molding attaching clip comprising:

• a fixing portion to be fixed in the groove of the panel;
• a pair of elastically deformable wall portions erected from the fixing portion in a direction away from a bottom face of the groove of the panel and separated from each other in a state where the fixing portion is attached to the panel;
• and
• a pair of engaging portions provided on the pair of wall portions to be engaged with a pair of locking portions provided on the molding by means of elastic deformation of the wall portions,
• wherein the fixing portion comprises an elastically deformable guide portion projected from the fixing portion in a direction away from the bottom face of the groove of the panel and adapted to enter into a receiving groove which is formed in the molding, and
• wherein, when engaging the molding, the molding is positioned so that the pair of locking portions can be engaged with the pair of engaging portions, by butting the receiving groove of the molding against the guide portion.

A molding to be attached to a panel along a concave groove formed in the panel by being engaged with a molding attaching clip provided in the concave groove so as to cover the groove from outside, the molding comprising:

• a head portion for covering the groove of the panel;
• and
• a projected portion protruded from a back face side of the head portion into the groove of the panel,
• wherein the projected portion comprises a protruded main body, and a pair of locking portions provided on both side faces of the protruded main body and adapted to be engaged with a pair of engaging portions provided on the molding attaching clip by means of elastic deformation of the wall portions,
• wherein the projected portion has on its lower face a receiving groove into which an elastically deformable guide portion provided on the molding attaching clip can enter, and
• wherein, when engaging with the molding attaching clip, the molding is positioned so that the pair of locking portions can be engaged with the pair of engaging portions, by butting the receiving groove of the molding against the guide portion.
