An extension member 12 is subassembled to a fender apron 3a, 3b by welding the rear end portion 26 of the extension member 12 to the front end portion 27 of the fender apron 3a 3b, and the fender apron 3a, 3b is welded to a lamp support panel 2a, 2b in the condition where the interface P between the extension member 12 and the fender apron 3a 3b is disposed, substantially in the front and rear direction of the vehicle body, so that when a load in the front and rear direction is applied to the extension member 12, the load acts as a shearing force on the welded portion S4 of the extension member 12 and the fender apron 3a, 3b.

Why it's free to use
- Filed August 8, 1994 and granted January 30, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended August 8, 2014.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by August 8, 2016.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
