A method of mounting a connector of a pair of connectors that are respectively mounted on a stationary panel and a movable panel, and that engage with one another. A first connector of the pair of connectors is movably mounted on one of the stationary panel and the movable panel via a spring. The first connector has a flange portion that extends outwardly from an outer periphery of the first connector and has a first through hole. A base plate has a second through hole that is aligned with the first through hole. The method of mounting the connector includes integrating the second connector and the base plate into an assembly by inserting a bolt having the spring into the first and the second through holes prior to the second connector being mounted on one of the stationary panel and the movable panel, and then fixing the base plate of the assembly on the one of the stationary panel and the movable panel so as to movably mount the second connector on the one of the stationary panel and the movable panel. The spring can extend between the flange portion and an end of the bolt extending from the flange portion. Thus, the connector mounting operation becomes easier.
