A fastening device fastens a lamp unit on a vehicle. The fastening device allows the lamp unit to be fastened to a body part of the vehicle. A lamp unit for the vehicle has a lamp member and a fastening device for fastening the lamp unit to a body part of the vehicle.

A mounting bracket for mounting a fog light on an automobile bumper includes a base plate having a center opening. A support frame is joined to and extending away from the base plate and around a portion of the opening, and a bottom plate is joined to another end of the support frame. The fog light is installed in the bracket through the center opening, so that an angle adjustment thumbwheel of the light is located in the space created by the support frame and bottom plate. The bracket with the light is then mounted to the bumper. A gap in the support frame allows the user to access and turn the thumbwheel after the light is mounted to the bumper. The bracket serves as a relocation bracket that allows factory fog lights for newer Jeep Wrangler model to fit into an aftermarket bumper designed for earlier Jeep Wranglers.

A headlamp structure has a contoured reflector panel with a forward-facing surface and a reflex supporting portion. The forward-facing surface has a plurality of reflector surface portions. The reflex supporting portion extends forward from an inboard side inboard of the reflector surface portions. A passive reflector is attached to the reflex supporting portion with a reflector surface that faces an outboard direction relative to the forward-facing surface. Each of the plurality of reflector surface portions is shaped and configured to reflect light from a corresponding one of a plurality of light emitting elements and aim the reflected light to project in a forward direction parallel to the reflector surface of the passive reflector. The reflector surface of the passive reflector is configured such that at least light approaching the contoured reflector panel from outboard of an outboard side of the contoured reflector panel is reflected back in the outboard direction.

The invention relates to an alignment element (10), with which an attachment part (50) can be positioned on a structure part (42) of a motor vehicle. The alignment element (10) is also suitable for retaining the attachment part (50) at a defined distance to the structure part (42) under non-destructive force transmission, and for compensating an occurring angular adjustment (W). The invention also relates to an illumination assembly (28) for a vehicle having the alignment element (10) and a corresponding method for mounting an illumination device (34) on the vehicle. Finally, a vehicle (32) comprising the illumination assembly (28) is also an object of the invention.

In a vehicle body front structure, including a front hood (10) covering a front space (3) defined in a front part of a vehicle body (4) from above, a front panel (13) laterally extending along and under a front edge of the front hood and facing substantially in a fore and aft direction, the front panel defining an opening (13A) in an outboard part thereof, and a headlight (12) attached to the vehicle body and facing the opening of the front panel from behind the front panel, the headlight is attached to a rear side of the front panel via a bracket (40) which is positionally fixed to a periphery of the opening.

A lighting device to be mounted on a vehicle has a light source, a projection lens having an optical axis, and disposed so as to allow at least some of light emitted from the light source to pass therethrough, a holder that holds the projection lens, a pivot shaft provided at one of the projection lens and the holder and extending in a direction intersecting with the optical axis of the projection lens, a bearing provided at the other of the projection lens and the holder and that holds the pivot shaft, an aiming mechanism configured to pivot the projection lens relative to the holder about the pivot shaft, and a reflector configured to reflect the light emitted from the light source in a predetermined direction. The reflector is provided in the holder. The position of the holder to the light source is fixed.

Mounting tabs, kits and methods of using the mounting tabs where none previously existed or for replacing/repairing broken mounting tabs are disclosed. For example, the mounting tabs, kits and methods disclosed herein are well suited for the repair of high value components, including automotive components.

A multi-purpose vehicle includes a rollover protection structure frame (ROPS frame) associated with a seat. The ROPS frame includes right and left front struts, and right and left rear struts. A handrail frame is attached to a lateral outer side of the seat. A cover member is attached to the handrail frame and extends upwards from the handrail frame.
