Abstract
A shock isolating lamp assembly for a vehicle lamp including an improved shock isolating mounting is provided. The assembly includes a lamp housing for receiving a lens and a shock isolating mount of a resilient material including a central body portion formed with a vertical opening for receiving a lamp socket and two opposed pairs of parallel arms symmetrical to the center line extending outwardly from the body in a plane. The arms are spaced apart a distance approximately the diameter of the lamp socket. Each pair of arms is joined to a perpendicular mounting bar of the same resilient material which cooperates with a pair of opposed mounting tracks extending into the lamp housing. The lamp socket is substantially tubular, open at the top and bottom end and formed with a pair of opposed barbs for engagement by a pair of opposed recesses formed in the inner wall of the mount body portion for retaining the socket therein.
