ABSTRACT:
An integral socket assembly with insert molded metal support structure is molded as a unit and is mounted on a headlamp assembly to enable adjusting the headlamp alignment. The integral socket assembly includes a support bracket which is secured to the headlamp structure, and integrally molded with the support bracket are coupling sockets for receiving the coupling members formed on movable adjusting screws which translate to adjust the orientation of the integral socket assembly and the headlamp structure secured thereto. The support bracket has a metal reinforcing element insert molded therein to reinforce the structural integrity of the bracket and the securement to the headlamp structure. The coupling socket can also include a seal member removably covering an entrance opening to the socket cavity in order to prevent entry of debris into the coupled joint.
