A two-piece reflector has a base member with a substantially planar surface including a substantially complete reflector and a partially complete reflector projecting therefrom and integral therewith. First and second spaced apart supports are associated with the partially complete reflector and project from the base member and provide pivot points therein. A substantially concave housing is adjustably fitted to cooperate with the partially complete reflector. The concave housing has a pair of spaced apart, projecting, axially aligned nubbins, a first of these nubbins being rotationally fixed to the pivot point in the first support and a second of the nubbins being rotationally fixed to the pivot point in said second support. This allows rotational adjustment of the housing about the axis defined between the pivot points. Means are provided attached to the concave housing for fixing the same in a desired position.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1.
A two-piece reflector comprising: a base member with a front surface and a partially complete reflector projecting therefrom and integral therewith; first and second spaced apart supports associated with said partially complete reflector projecting from said base member and providing pivot points therein; and a substantially concave housing adjustably fitted to cooperate with said partially complete reflector, said concave housing having a pair of spaced apart, projecting, axially aligned nubbins, a first of said nubbins being rotationally fixed to said pivot point in said first support and a second of said nubbins being rotationally fixed to said pivot point in said second support.
2.
The reflector of claim 1 wherein at least one pivot point has a first side defining a first surface of rotation about an axis, and a second side defining a second surface of rotation about the same axis, the second side being axially offset from the first side, the first side and second side defining an axial passage extending between the first side and the second side.
3.
The reflector of claim 2 wherein said support includes a wall extending in a direction toward said substantially concave housing limiting free motion of a nubbin to thereby guide said nubbin to a respective pivot point.
4.
The reflector of claim 1 wherein said substantially concave housing includes means for fixing said substantially concave housing in a desired position with said partially complete reflector.
5.
A pivotable reflector lamp assembly comprising: a reflector having a first pivot shaft and a second pivot shaft defining an axis of rotation, and a housing element having a first support and a second support, each support having a pivot coupling to axially and rotationally mate with a respective pivot shaft, each support being sufficiently flexible to open a rotationally coupling to receive the first pivot shaft and a second pivot shaft, and sufficiently stiff to close the supports on the first pivot shaft and a second pivot shaft to capture them in the rotational coupling
