A spring connector for connecting at least one electrical track of a display screen with an electrical circuit also holds the display screen in position. A flexible metal foil forms a spring and a plastics material film which includes at least one electrical track has substantially the same shape as the metal foil and is fixed to one face of the metal foil. At least one of the tracks of the plastics material film connects tracks of the display screen with the electrical circuit.
