An aiming apparatus for horizontal aim adjustment of a lighting device of a motor vehicle that uses an adjuster that could be broken at a neck recess portion after the horizontal aim is adjusted, thereby reducing the likelihood of any inadvertent change of the horizontal aim without the need for an additional part to cover a head portion of the adjuster.

The present invention relates to a headlamp's aiming apparatus, in which the headlamp's optical axis is adjustable with respect to a vehicle body, the aiming apparatus that includes a stationary member secured to a portion of the headlamp; a tiltable member attached to the stationary member via one or more adjustment shafts; and a fixed pivot shaft to allow pivotal connection with the headlamp's tiltable member. Adjustment shafts include a ball portion at a forward end portion, a drive shaft portion at a rear end portion and a flexible portion between the ball and drive shaft portions. The pivot shaft in conjunction with the adjustment shafts enable the tiltable member to tilt about a horizontal axis and a vertical axis of the headlamp to adjust the headlamp's optical axis, and the flexible portion is adapted to deflect in multiple directions to enhance accessible degrees of freedom during the headlamp's optical axis adjustments.
