Abstract
Vehicle lamp housing assembly that uses a multiple-piece adhesive track to secure the components together. The assembly and seal can be formed in a single operation. The invention eliminates conventional fastening means such as welding, snaps, screws and nuts, as well as extra operations that would otherwise increase the cost of the finished product. In a preferred embodiment, the same adhesive that is used to seal the lens to the housing is also used for assembly of the components.
