Abstract
An installation structure for a headlamp includes a headlamp including a lens configured to emit irradiation light toward a front of a vehicle, a lamp cover having an opening through which the lens is exposed, and an elastic cover configured to close a gap between the headlamp and the opening of the lamp cover. The headlamp is configured to be moved with respect to the lamp cover to adjust an optical axis. The elastic cover closes the gap between the headlamp and the opening of the lamp cover regardless of a direction of the optical axis of the headlamp.

An installation structure for a headlamp comprising:
- a headlamp including a lens configured to emit irradiation light toward a front of a vehicle;
- a lamp cover having an opening through which the lens is exposed;
- and
- an elastic cover configured to close a gap between the headlamp and the opening of the lamp cover,
- wherein the headlamp is configured to be moved with respect to the lamp cover to adjust an optical axis,
- wherein the elastic cover closes the gap between the headlamp and the opening of the lamp cover regardless of a direction of the optical axis of the headlamp,
- wherein the elastic cover is provided with a pair of ribs configured to come into contact with an opening edge of the lamp cover in a vehicle width direction, and
- wherein the pair of ribs are located inside the lamp cover, and come into contact with the opening edge of the lamp cover from an outer side in the vehicle width direction.
