A clearance is provided between the holder and the one connector. A hood of the one connector is provided slidably in the holder. A flexible arm of the holder has an engaging portion at an end thereof. The one connector includes a flexible engaging piece having an engaging portion to be fit to/released from the engaging portion of the flexible arm; and the flexible engaging piece is freely contactable with a side wall in the vicinity of the flexible arm of the holder.
