What is claimed is: 1 . A connector device comprising a pair of connectors including: a pair of housings that has terminal housing chambers housing terminals; and a pair of front holders that is attached to the pair of the housings to double-lock the terminals in the terminal housing chambers, wherein one of the pair of front holders has a first convex portion protruding in a direction approaching the other of the pair of front holders and a first concave portion recessed in a direction away from the other of the pair of front holders, on a front end surface thereof that faces the other of the pair of front holders when the pair of connectors are fitted, the other of the pair of front holders has a second convex portion protruding in a direction approaching the one of the pair of front holders and a second concave portion recessed in a direction away from the one of the pair of front holders, on a front end surface thereof that faces the one of the pair of front holders when the pair of connectors are fitted, and the first convex portion is inserted into the second concave portion, the second convex portion is inserted into the first concave portion, and the front end surfaces of the pair of front holders are in contact with each other. 2 . The connector device according to claim 1 , wherein the one of the pair of front holders has a plurality of the first convex portions and a plurality of the first concave portions, and the other of the pair of front holders has a plurality of the second convex portions as many as the first convex portions and a plurality of the second concave portions as many as the first concave portions. 3 . The connector device according to claim 1 , wherein a common holder may be used as each of the one of the pair of front holders and the other of the pair of front holders. 4 . The connector device according to claim 2 , wherein a common holder may be used as each of the one of the pair of front holders and the other of the pair of front holders. 5 . The connector device according to claim 1 wherein an outer shape of the one of the pair of front holders is the same as an outer shape of the other of the pair of front holders.
