With the displayed light screen 57, the light intensity in the light pattern from 10 degrees up to 90 degrees upwards and 90 degrees to the left or 90 degrees to the right will not exceed 125 candelas. The shape and location of the light screen 57 may vary depending on the shape and design of the modular headlamp assembly 10. There are several factors that determine the location and shape of the part, such as the orientation of the LED array, the shape of the reflector and the location in the reflector. A thermally conductive connection is disposed between the dipped-beam cooling flange portion 37 and the dipped-beam LED light source 40. The dipped-beam mounting portion 38 includes alignment means 65 formed on ledge members 66 projecting from the mounting structure to facilitate alignment of the dipped-beam reflector element 50 with dimming. 67 with apertures 68 formed therein for interconnection with alignment means 65 on the low beam mounting member 38.
