MOTOR VEHICLE END MODULE ASSEMBLY

摘要

An end module assembly has an internal support structure (100). An exterior fascia is mounted to the internal support structure. The fascia is configured to be a portion of a vehicle body assembly when the end module assembly is installed on the vehicle. An external visible component is mounted to the support structure in a fixed relationship with respect to the fascia in proper alignment with respect to the fascia with a surface thereof facing exteriorly of the fascia. A bumper beam (112) and bumper beam mounting structure connects the bumper beam to the internal support structure. A mounting structure is connected to the support structure for attaching the support structure to mounting points on the partially completed motor vehicle. The mounting structure permits selective repositioning of the end module assembly in a longitudinal, vertical and horizontal direction relative to the partially completed motor vehicle whereby the fascia is alignable with respect to the remaining portions of the vehicle body assembly prior to secure engagement of the end module to the partially completed motor vehicle.
