Abstract

An electrical junction box is located so as to oppose to an adjuster which is provided on a rear face of an on-vehicle instrument. The electrical junction box has a first face which faces the on-vehicle instrument, and a second face which is opposite to the first face. At least one through hole is formed so as to communicate the first face and the second face. The electrical junction box is configured to be disposed such that the through hole opposes the adjuster.
