A headlamp adjuster for adjusting the position of a reflector includes a base
housing
with a slide positioned at least partially therein. The base housing has mounting
tabs so that the adjuster can be secured to the back of a headlamp assembly support
frame. The base housing also has channels along its sides in which rails extending
from the slide are disposed. A ball stud extends from the slide, the ball of which
engages the reflector within the headlamp assembly such that axial movement of
the ball stud causes movement of the reflector. Movement of the slide is caused
by rotation of an adjustment screw that is threaded into the slide but held in
axial position with respect to the base housing. The adjuster may include a vehicle
headlamp aiming device ("VHAD") if required for the particular application." A
marked-up version showing the changes is enclosed herewith in accordance with 37
CFR 1.121 (b)(iii).
