The mechanical coupling unit comprises a coupling element, a first coupling link and a second coupling link. The first coupling link is arranged between the low beam light unit and the coupling element and the second coupling link is arranged between the high beam light unit and the coupling element.

Abstract: A method is provided for mounting a light module. A light module that is mounted by means of such a method includes at least one light source for emitting light, and at least one optical element for forming the beam of light. The relative arrangement between the light source and the optical element is adjusted via the following steps. The light module is arranged in an adjusting device, and a light detection device is provided. The light source is switched on, and the light detection device is illuminated with the light. A set deviation between a value and an actual value of a light field generated with the light as compared to a required light field is measured. The relative arrangement between the light source and the optical element is then adjusted until the set/actual deviation is minimal or zero.

A front surface of the light-transmissive screen borders on an inner edge (6) area of the opaque-baffle frame directed toward the reflector. At the bottom of a mounting area of a lamp (18) the light-transmissive screen is positioned behind an outer edge area (7) of the opaque-baffle frame. The outer edge area of the opaque-baffle frame is attached to an outer edge of the housing. The light-transmissive screen is held against movement in all directions on the rear side of the opaque-baffle frame by a shaped interlocking coupling between its outer edge and the opaque-baffle frame.
