One or both of two components that are joinable by a connector (22) is provided with a connector retainer mechanism (200) that holds the connector with the component prior to assembly. In one embodiment, a component having a mounting hole (102) therein includes a retainer (202, 204) or holder that keeps a connector in the mounting hole so that the component may be assembled to another component without the connector falling out of the mounting hole prior to such assembly. An example of a connector retainer mechanism is a ball that partially extends into the mounting hole from a transverse bore (208).
