The flat substrate is arranged inside the housing. The light emitter is arranged on the substrate. The lens is arranged inside the housing. The housing extends over a surface of the cover facing the radar device. The light emitter emits light that illuminates an ornamental portion of the cover. The substrate is located outside an electromagnetic wave transmission range of the radar device. The lens reflects the light from the light emitter toward the ornamental portion.
