ABSTRACT:
The pillar garnish is supported by a steel bracket interposed between the pillar garnish and the pillar. The bracket includes a body frame having a substantially channel-like cross section formed by a top surface opposite to the pillar garnish, and two side surfaces extending from two edge lines of the top surface substantially perpendicular to the top surface toward the pillar, the body frame having free ends of the two side surfaces which are welded to the pillar, a claw portion projecting over the body frame and capable of being connected to the pillar garnish, and a plurality of tag portions formed between the side surfaces of the body frame, the tag portion extends from a cut portion formed in the top surface of the body frame in the same direction as the direction of the free end of either side surface of the body frame, and a free end of the tag portion is positioned at a position defined by a distance shorter than the distance from a free end of another side surface of the body frame to the top surface of the body frame, the free end of the tag portion being formed to substantially run parallel to the top surface toward outside.
