Abstract
Disclosed is a method and apparatus for mounting connectors to printed circuit boards. The circuit boards are aligned with the connectors by inserting spring-loaded pins through holes in the board. The connectors are then mounted by inserting pegs on the connector housings through the same holes which include the pins. The pins are displaced from the holes as the pegs are inserted therein while alignment is maintained.
