Abstract
Disclosed is a cowl top positioning structure for determining the relative positions of a windshield and a front cowl top by means of a clip. The clip has: a cowl top mounting section to which the front cowl top is mounted; a windshield facing section facing the lower end surface of the windshield; and a reaction force generation section for generating a reaction force acting against a pushing force with which the lower end surface of the windshield pushes the windshield facing section toward the front of the vehicle body. The relative positions of the windshield and the front cowl top are determined by causing, by means of the reaction force generated by the reaction force generation section, the rear end surface of the front cowl top to abut against the lower end surface of the windshield.

- and
- a clip mounted to a front part of a vehicle body and disposed between the front cowl top and the vehicle body,
- wherein the clip includes:
- a cowl top mounting section to which the front cowl top is mounted with a rear end surface thereof disposed face to face with a lower end surface of the windshield;
- a windshield facing section facing the lower end surface of the windshield;
- and
- a reaction force generation section for generating a reaction force tending to force the windshield facing section against the lower end surface of the windshield,
- wherein the reaction force generated by the reaction force generation section causes the rear end surface of the front cowl top to abut against the lower end surface of the windshield.
