Abstract
An automotive roof spoiler having retractable lamps particularly suitable for trucks, vans, campers and other vehicles used for both on-road and off-road purposes. The automotive roof spoiler includes lamps which are rotatably mounted within the roof spoiler about axes generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the spoiler and a motor, preferably located within the roof spoiler, which rotates the lamps from an upright position with the lenses of the lamps facing forwardly above the roof spoiler for off-road use to a retracted position within the body portion of the spoiler for on-road use.
