ABSTRACT:
A vehicle headlamp assembly is provided which includes a bulb; a reflector housing mounting the bulb; at least one rod pivotally connected to the housing; an adjuster body encircling the rod and threadably engaged therewith, the adjuster body having an insertion end generally opposite the reflector housing and a slot on the insertion end; a vehicle panel with an aperture for receipt of the adjuster body insertion end; and a slider mounted for relative movement with respect to the panel. The slider has an aperture with a first dimension for receipt of the insertion end of the adjuster body, and the slider aperture has a second end with a smaller dimension for encircling the adjuster body adjacent the slot. Thus, movement of the slider from a first position aligning the slot aperture first end with the panel aperture allows insertion or removal of the insertion end of the adjuster body, and movement of the slider to a second position allowing the slider aperture second end to align with the panel aperture retains the adjuster body with the vehicle panel, thereby attaching the reflector body to the vehicle.
