ABSTRACT:
A headlamp-indicator unit (1) for motor vehicles, includes a reflector unit (2) made of plastic material or a spacer member of plastic material with a reflector of metal, in which are formed closed lamp chambers (3, 4) with corresponding reflector walls and openings for lamp sockets for a main headlamp and a flashing direction indicator, which are covered by corresponding diffusion and light lenses (5, 6), the entire headlamp-indicator unit being pivotable both about a horizontal and about a vertical pivot axis. The headlamp-indicator unit (1) is supported in a support plane (E) parallel to the longitudinal median plane of the vehicle by a rounded supporting edge (10) on the fender (8) and a corresponding supporting groove (11) on the reflector unit (2), which both lie on the arc (r) with respect to the intersection (S) of the horizontal pivot axis (H) with the support plane (E). The light lens (6) of the flashing direction indicator (4) is extended around the corner of the bodywork, viewed from the side, the rear edge (12) of the unit and has a concentric arcuate profile (R) which matches a corresponding receiving recess (13) in the fender (8) having a radius (R').
