ABSTRACT:
A snap-in headlamp adjustment assembly for positioning a vehicle headlamp mounted upon a movable mounting bracket relative to a fixed vehicle frame includes a snap-in adjuster nut being formed of a head portion, a body portion, and a flange portion. The head portion includes a plurality of resilient arms which are interlockingly engagable with an interior retaining surface of the fixed vehicle frame to secure the adjuster nut against axial movement relative to an opening in the vehicle frame. A pair of projections are formed on the flange portion and are engagable with corresponding grooves disposed adjacent the opening on an exterior surface of the vehicle frame to secure the adjuster nut against rotation relative to the opening on the vehicle frame.
