Headlamps

An adjustable headlamp assembly for a motor vehicle comprising a headlamp, means for mounting the headlamp for tilting movement about a first axis extending normally to the direction in which the headlamp is focussed, resilient means for biassing the headlamp in one direction of tilt about said axis and a Bowden cable mechanism for pulling the headlamp in the opposite direction, said Bowden cable mechanism having an outer sheath with opposite ends, and an inner cable with opposite ends, means for anchoring the ends of the sheath against movement, one end of the inner cable being connected to the headlamp at a location spaced from the axis about which the headlamp tilts and the other end of the inner cable being connected to an adjustment device disposed remote from the headlamp and adapted to be operated from the interior of the motor vehicle for adjusting the position of the inner cable with respect to the outer sheath, the adjustment device comprising an anchorage fixed on the cable, a mounting for the anchorage for supporting the anchorage for linear sliding movement so as to move the cable linearly and screw means engaged with the anchorage for adjusting the position of the anchorage with respect to the mounting with the headlamp being adjusted in relation to the rotation of the screw means.
