Abstract
An adjustable fixing element, particularly for headlights of motor vehicles, has a setscrew on which a first screw element and a second screw element are arranged with locating surfaces which face each other. In order to create an adjustable fixing device which can be adjusted higher from the side of the plate facing away from the object to be fixed or from another holder, it is proposed to provide a handling aid on the first screw element which projects beyond its locating surface. The second screw element exhibits a corresponding recess in its locating surface for receiving the handling aid of the first screw element.
