A protector includes a main body, lids, hinges, and lock portions. The main body including a bottom wall, a first sidewall, and a second sidewall. The lids are coupled to the main body through the hinges. The lock portions are disposed between the lids and the main body. The lids are configured to cover the main body from both sides thereof. A first lid includes a closure plate at an adjacent position thereof. The closure plate protrudes from an end portion of the first lid toward an inner surface side of the second lid. The closure plate closes gap between the first and second lids. A second lid includes a misassembly prevention rib at an adjacent position thereof. The rib protrudes from an end portion of an outer surface of the second lid toward a direction away from the bottom wall.

What is claimed is: 1. A protector, which allows wire harness to pass therethrough, the protector comprising: a main body having a substantially U shape in section, the main body including a bottom wall, a first sidewall, and a second sidewall; lids including a first lid and a second lid, the lids arranged in an extending direction of the main body; hinges including first and second hinges, the lids being coupled to the main body through the hinges, respectively, the first lid being coupled to the first sidewall through the first hinge, the second lid being coupled to the second sidewall through the second hinge; and lock portions disposed between the lids and the main body, respectively, the lock portions engaging with the lids, respectively, wherein: the lids are configured to cover the main body from both sides thereof; the first lid includes a closure plate at an adjacent position thereof where the first lid is adjacent to the second lid, the closure plate protruding from an end portion of the first lid toward an inner surface side of the second lid, the closure plate closing gap between the first lid and the second lid; the second lid includes a misassembly prevention rib at an adjacent position thereof where the second lid is adjacent to the first lid, the rib protruding from an end portion of an outer surface of the second lid toward a direction away from the bottom wall of the main body; an assembly procedure is set so that the first lid including the closure plate is first closed and then the second lid including the rib is closed; and if an operator fails to follow the assembly procedure and misassembles the first and second lids and the main body, the closure plate runs on the rib to prevent the first lid including the closure plate from being engaged with the lock portion. 2. The protector according to claim 1, wherein: the lids are separated from each other at a position where the main body changes an angle of the extending direction or a position where it is impossible to provide the lock portions on an outer surface of only one of the first and second sidewalls; the closure plate protrudes from an inner surface of the first lid; and when the closure plate is located on an inner side of the second lid, an outer surface of the first lid is flush with the outer surface of the second lid. 3. The protector according to claim 1, wherein: at least one of the first and second sidewalls defines at an intermediate position thereof, an opening through which a branch line branched from a main line of the wire harness is drawn out; the opening divides the at least one of the first and second sidewalls into two sub sidewalls; and a lid coupled through a hinge to one of the sub sidewalls on branch upstream is set to be first closed. 4. The protector according to claim 2, wherein: at least one of the first and second sidewalls defines at an intermediate position thereof, an opening through which a branch line branched from a main line of the wire harness is drawn out; the opening divides the at least one of the first and second sidewalls into two sub sidewalls; and a lid coupled through a hinge to one of the sub sidewalls on branch upstream is set to be first closed. 5. The protector according to claim 1, wherein numbers are engraved in the lids, the numbers indicate the assembly procedure. 6. The protector according to claim 2, wherein numbers are engraved in the lids, the numbers indicate the assembly procedure.
