Abstract
A vehicle lamp device in which the inside of a lamp unit is communicated with the outside while maintaining a water-proof property of the lamp unit itself so that generation of water droplets is prevented. The lamp unit constituted by a lamp body for housing a large number of light-emitting diodes arranged at predetermined intervals in a transverse direction of a vehicle body and a front face lens covering a front opening portion of the lamp body incorporated in a spoiler disposed on an upper surface of a rear end portion of a roof of the vehicle body so that the front face lens is exposed to the outside through an opening portion formed in a rear end surface of the spoiler. A rubber bushing is disposed in the spoiler, and lead wires of the lamp unit are led out to the outside of the lamp unit through a lead-out portion which projects from a back surface of the lamp body and are inserted through lead-wire insertion holes formed in the rubber bushing. A tube is integrally provided with the rubber bushing with a free end of the tube being connected to the lead-out portion. Air holes are formed through the rubber bushing having ends communicating with the tube.
