Abstract: A lamp assembly for a vehicle includes an inner casing, a lamp socket located within the casing for positioning a light bulb, and a pivot support mounted within the casing and supporting the lamp socket. The support includes a hinge member engaging a part of the socket such that the socket is pivotable upwards and downwards about the hinge member. A vibration absorber is connected between the socket and the casing for damping upwards and downwards movement of the socket when a vehicle on which the lamp is mounted moves.
