Then, the outer peripheral surface of the hook portion 16 is formed into a smooth spherical surface so that the locking claw 14 does not break the sealing cover 11 when the inside handle 8 is mounted. A flange portion 17 is formed on the side opposite to the mounting surface 8a of the inside handle 8, and the inside handle 8 embedded in the trim board 12 is held by the flange portion 17. .

Next, a procedure for attaching the inside handle 8 having the above configuration will be described. First, the sealing cover 11 and the trim board 12 are disposed at predetermined positions on the room R side of the inner panel 4, and the recess 9 of the inner panel 4 and the mounting hole 13 of the trim board 12 are disposed so as to face each other. Next, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the inside handle 8 is inserted from the room R side toward the outside of the vehicle through the mounting hole 13, and the locking claws 14 are engaged while pressing the sealing cover 11 outward.
