A component attachment apparatus is used for attaching a component in a panel hole of a panel and is formed of a grommet to be inserted into the panel hole to be incapable of rotation, and a pin. The grommet includes an insertion hole, an open part extending outwardly to cross the insertion hole, and a meeting part formed at at least one side of the open part along the insertion hole. The pin includes a head part larger than the insertion hole, and a leg part extending from the head part and inserted into the insertion hole of the grommet to be capable of rotation. The leg part has a first catch elastically projecting outward from an outer perimeter of the leg part to couple in the panel hole, and a second catch positioned at a tip of the leg part for preventing escape of the leg part from the insertion hole. When the pin with the leg part is inserted into the insertion hole, the first catch is positioned in the open part to engage the panel. When the pin is rotated, the first catch is pushed inward by the meeting part to be located inside the grommet, so that the component attachment apparatus can be removed from the panel.
