Abstract
A vehicle lamp assembly includes a housing having a top end, a body portion with an interior portion, and a lens portion covering the top end. The lamp assembly also includes an attachment member having a sleeve portion with an open top end and an open bottom end. The sleeve portion includes a recess and is adapted to receive the body of the housing and to fit within an opening in a vehicle surface such that the lens portion of the housing is substantially flush with an outer face of the vehicle surface and the body portion of the housing is positioned substantially behind the surface. A securing device is positioned between a back face of the vehicle surface and a plurality of legs from the attachment member, wherein the securing device prevents the attachment member and housing from being removed from the vehicle surface.
