Abstract
An automobile headlamp wherein a level for measuring the tilt of the illumination angle of the headlamp in the up/down direction is attached to a horizontally extending portion of a socket fixture attached in a bulb insertion hole of a tiltable reflector or lamp body so as to extend toward the back of the lamp. The conventionally required level-mounting space on the upper portion of the headlamp is therefor not required, and hence the height of lamp in the up/down direction can be reduced and the headlamp made thin.
