The nut fixes the attaching portion to the vehicle body by being tightened to the attaching bolt with a washer interposed between the nut and the attaching portion. The spacer is disposed between an inner circumferential surface of the attaching hole and an outer circumferential surface of the attaching bolt, and is in contact with the vehicle body and the washer in an axial direction of the attaching bolt in a state where the attaching bolt and the nut are tightened. The spacer has an opening on a cylindrical side surface thereof and is capable of rotating around the axial direction of the attaching bolt in a state where the attaching bolt is inserted into the opening.
