An anchor for removably attaching an accessory to a frame member having an outer surface and a slot defined in the outer surface. The anchor comprises a body that has a surface that is generally complementary in shape to a portion of the outer surface of the frame member that surrounds the slot, a shank that from the surface, the shank being sized to be received in the slot and defining an aperture extending from a free end of the shank toward the surface. The aperture is adapted to receive a fastener. The anchor also includes at least one projection extending from a side of the shank. A vehicle having the frame member and the anchor is provided. A method of attaching a component to a frame member using the anchor is provided.

A vehicle body is disclosed. The vehicle body includes a lateral sill panel device made of fiber-reinforced plastic, which is formed as a hollow profile with an external wall element as an impact face, and a floorpan structure including a transverse seat support made of fiber-reinforced plastic, which extends in the Y-direction of the vehicle body substantially to the external wall element.

An off-center impact structure (a frame protrusion rupture mitigating structure) has a first end section, a mid-section and a second end section. The first end section is fixedly attached to an attachment section of a vehicle front side member. The mid-section extends laterally outward and defines an arcuate shape curving forward from the first end section and laterally outboard. The second end section of the off-center impact structure is located forward of the attachment section. The mid-section has a forward-facing surface formed with a plurality of vertically oriented recesses. In response to an off-center impact event where impacting force is applied to a distal end of the second end section, the off-center impact structure deforms bending along the mid-section with at least a portion of the vertically oriented recesses expanding in a bellows-like manner absorbing impact energy such that the second end section is moved rearward.

A vehicle includes a wheel within a wheel well, a fender panel assembly that includes a fender outer panel and a fender inner panel, the fender panel assembly at least partially surrounding the wheel well, and an overfender assembly connected to the fender panel assembly. The overfender assembly includes an overfender backing including a fender outer panel connection portion that connects to the fender outer panel and a fender inner panel connection portion that connects to the fender inner panel and an overfender garnish connected to the overfender backing. The overfender garnish and the overfender backing are formed separately of different materials.

A side cover structure for a motorcycle, which is to be arranged for covering a lateral side of the motorcycle, comprising a side cover that covers a lateral side of an air cleaner above the engine and includes a window for allowing vision therethrough. The side cover is provided with a side lower cover, which covers below the side cover and includes a surface portion for attaching from inside of the window of the side cover, and a garnish, which is made attachable/detachable to/from the outside of the window. The surface portion of the side lower cover carries a design shape thereon for being seen when the garnish is taken off from the side cover at the window. Such configuration provides the user to change the appearance of side cover structure of the motorcycle, thereby providing various styles of the side cover structure by the user preference.

A sliding-type footrest device for a vehicle includes: a guide rail mounted on a floor panel and extending in a forward-and-backward direction; a footrest housing engaged with the guide rail to slide along the guide rail in the forward-and-backward direction, the footrest housing having a door configured to be opened or closed; and a footrest box disposed inside the footrest housing and allowing a backseat passenger to place feet into the footrest while the door is open.

A vehicle includes a body, a handle, and at least one connection site for the handle at which the handle is selectively connectable to the vehicle. The body defines a passenger compartment and a door opening, and includes a door over the door opening. The at least one connection site includes a home connection site on the door. When connected to vehicle at the home connection site, the handle, from its corresponding location on the door, is subject to being operated by a user to allow the door to open.
