Abstract
A light guide assembly includes a metal material printed circuit board. A light emitting diode is mounted on and extends away from a first face of the printed circuit board. A light guide molded from a light transmissive polymeric material is positioned proximate to the light emitting diode and is at least partially received in a concomitantly shaped through bore pre-formed in the printed circuit board. The light guide includes an extended feature co-molded from the same material as the light guide and extending away from the first face of the printed circuit board in an installed position of the light guide. The extended feature includes a first extended feature having a first length and a second extended feature having a second length, the second length greater than the first length.
