Abstract
A fitting structure for mounting an electrical connection box to a vehicle body is provided. The fitting structure includes a box body constituting the electrical connection box and having first and second engagement projections and a vehicle fitting part arranged on the vehicle body to have first and second engagement holes into which the first and second engagement projections are to be engaged respectively. The first engagement projection has an engagement claw part engageable with a margin of the first engagement hole. A screw-fastened plate part and a temporary engagement projection are arranged on another side of the box body. In mounting the electrical connection box to the vehicle fitting part, the first engagement projection is firstly inserted into the first engagement hole so that the engagement claw part engages with the margin of the first engagement hole. Under such a condition, the box body is pivoted about the first engagement projection, so that the second engagement projection is inserted into the second engagement hole. Then, both of the screw-fastened plate part and the temporary engagement projection engage the box body with the vehicle fitting part temporarily.
