Abstract
A vehicle foglight, or other light for illuminating or signalling purposes, has a casing and a reflector, with a cradle which connects the reflector to the casing and which has an aperture in its upper part such that the cradle is U-shaped. The lamp is mounted in the aperture and the rear wall of the casing carries a metal plate. Heat from the lamp is dissipated so that plastics components are not unduly heated.
