Abstract
Headlight components including a bulb and a reflector are contained in a headlight housing, and a rear opening of the headlight housing is closed with a back cover. A circuit board is mounted on an inner surface of the back cover, and an impact-alleviating member is connected to or formed on an outer surface of the back cover. An external impact applied to circuit board through the back cover is alleviated by resiliency or plasticity of the impact-alleviating member. Thus, the circuit board is well protected from the external impact. The impact-alleviating member may be plural projections standing up from the outer surface of the back cover, or may be formed in various shapes.
