Abstract
Detecting pieces () are provided on an outer periphery of a connector housing () and a resilient grommet () is mounted on this outer periphery. When the connector housing () is incompletely inserted in a mounting hole () of a panel (), the detecting pieces () project outward by interfering with the panel () and the grommet () is pressed to bulge outward by projecting portions () of the detecting pieces (). When the connector housing () is correctly inserted into the mounting hole () of the panel (), the detecting pieces () are resiliently restored and release a pressed state of the grommet () so that a bulging state of the grommet () disappears.
