Abstract: An electrical card connector (1) includes a top lid (10) and a contact module (12). The top lid comprises a metal cover (100) and a pair of elongated grip arms (101) at opposite sides of the metal cover. Each grip arm is separately formed by insert molding at opposite sides of the cover and includes a rail (106) and a rib (107) projecting from a side of the rail. A pivot (108) is provided at a distal end of the rail and a wedge (109) extends from a forward end of the rail opposite the pivot. The contact module includes an insulative housing (120) and plurality of contacts (121). A pair of shaft lids (114) and a pair of lock portions (129) extend rearwardly and forwardly from rear and front corners of the insulative housing. Each shaft lid has a pivot hole (125) for pivotably engaging with a pivot of the grip arms. In use, an electrical card (2) is inserted into the top lid and the top lid is rotated to a closed position.
