Abstract
A molded synthetic resin signal lamp is formed by a pair of facing molded bowl shaped housing portions welded or otherwise connected together along a seam. In order to cover the seam to provide a more attractive appearance, the contact line is located beneath a groove and covered by an opaque band or strip. The band has mounting projections to facilitate assembly with one of the housing portions and the other housing portion is assembled therewith in a manner to sandwich the strip in the groove.
