Abstract
When an electrical connection box body is installed on a vehicle body, for a temporary pivotable mounting of the box body on the vehicle body, one of the box body and the vehicle body has a shaft and the other has a bracket to receive the shaft at a predetermined location, so as to allow pivoting of the box body about the shaft axis. Locating guide surfaces position the box body relative to the vehicle body during mounting, prior to receipt of the shaft at said predetermined location on the bracket. This makes the operation of installing the box easier and more precise and avoids looseness of the box body during assembly operations carried out on the box.
