A light system including a lens, a reflector, and a light source. The lens has body portion and a waterfall portion that extends at an angle relative to the body portion so that the waterfall portion is exposed when the light system is installed in a vehicle. The reflector is located adjacent to the lens. The light source is located adjacent to the lens that is configured to provide light to the reflector so that the reflector reflects the light through the waterfall portion so that the waterfall portion is illuminated.
