ABSTRACT:
A first connector is connected to a second connector while inserting an instrument unit into a unit insertion recess in an instrument panel, and the unit is positioned by pins, and is fixed. The unit insertion recess has an introductory portion and an open portion, and guide grooves for respectively guiding stabilizers formed on the unit are formed in the introductory portion. The second connector is displaceably mounted. When the instrument unit reaches a position where the second connector is slightly fitted in the first connector, and the pins on the panel are not yet passed respectively through positioning holes in the instrument unit, the stabilizers are disengaged respectively from the guide grooves to be received in the open portion, so that the position limitation is released.
