A connector (1) with rear holders, which connector comprises a housing (2) having a plurality of terminal housing chambers (3), and the rear holders (20a) and (20b) which are laid across the housing (2) and temporarily and regularly retained in the housing. One of the rear holders (20a) and (20b) includes a retaining hole (22) and a retaining pawl (23). On each side of the housing exist a temporarily retaining projection (4) having a tapered surface (5) over the whole of its surface, and a tapered retaining step (6). A stooping contact face (7) is also provided on the surface of the rear end portion of the housing (2). Therefore, as the rear holders (20a) and (20b) are pivoted when the retaining holes (22) are mated with the respective temporarily retaining projections (4, the retaining pawls (23) are mated with the retaining steps (6) and the undersurfaces of the rear holders (20a) and (20b) are brought into contact with the respective contact faces (7), whereby the rear holders (20a) and (20b) are temporarily retained in the housing (2).
