Abstract
A lighting device for a motor vehicle includes a lighting apparatus which has one or more light sources and one or more transparent bodies which each have a surface made of a plurality of flat facets. The lighting device is configured such that light which comes from a light source at least in part passes through a transparent body and is refracted at facets of the transparent body. The light which passes through the transparent body at least in part exits from the lighting device in order to create a light distribution. An associated transparent body is a molded component having one or more recesses which are integrally molded in the molded component, the molded component being clamped in the lighting device by the engagement of one or more projections into the one or more recesses.
