A vehicle headlamp including a reflector installed so as to be tiltable by an
aiming
mechanism installed in the lamp body. The aiming screw of the aiming mechanism
has a rearward-extending portion that extends out of the lamp body, and a crown
gear is attached to an area near the end of the rearward-extending portion so as
to be spaced apart from a screw supporting wall of the lamp body that supports
the middle portion of the aiming screw. An expanded-out wall that functions as
a screwdriver guide for supporting a screwdriver that is used to rotate the crown
gear is provided above the screw supporting wall. The end of the rearward-extending
portion of the aiming screw is supported by a bracket that is installed near the
screw supporting wall.
