The present invention provides various lamp assembly configurations for motorized vehicles. In one embodiment, the lamp assembly includes a light source, such as a light emitting diode (LED) module, that is operable to generate light. The light source is attached to the vehicle structure, located on the interior of the vehicle adjacent to the aperture. A light guide is operatively connected to the light source. The light guide is configured to transmit light generated by the light source to preselected locations along the exterior of the vehicle structure, and diffuse the light. The light guide is attached to the vehicle structure, located on the exterior of the vehicle adjacent to the aperture in opposing relation to the light source. The cross-sectional area of the aperture formed through the vehicle structure is less than the cross-sectional areas of the LED module body and the light emitting segment of the light guide.

Vehicle lamp assembly

A headlamp assembly having a mounting bracket which is generally L-shaped in configuration and provides a three-point suspension for a lamp body and in which two of the points are longitudinally adjustable and are located on opposed legs of the bracket and the third point is fixed in position and is located at the intersection of the two legs of the bracket.

Mounting bracket for headlamp assembly

A headlamp assembly which includes a lamp body for adjustable movement about a aim axis and in which such movement is realized through a rotatable wheel accessible from above the headlamp assembly and which is rotatable about an axis normal to the aim axis and forms a part of a spur gear arrangement for realizing the adjustment of the lamp body.
