Abstract
A lamp unit is fastened to a bracket via screw fastening at two positions in the vehicle width direction where a rotation axis Axof the lamp unit extends. Then, the bracket includes protrusions formed at four positions in the direction where the rotation axis Axextends to allow the lamp unit to be rotated in the vertical direction by being in contact with a support panel of the lamp unit. Accordingly, with a simplified configuration, the contact portions of the four protrusions may function as fulcrums when the lamp unit rotated, and the lamp unit may be rotated in the vertical direction.
