Abstract
A lighting device includes a housing having first and second housing parts to define a first receiving space there between, and a third housing part arranged on the second housing part to define an open gap. The third housing part defines with the second housing part a second receiving space in which a first light conductor is arranged. A plastic film strip is arranged between edges of the first and second housing parts and is transparent for light emitted by the first light conductor, with the emitted light being projected into one end face of the film strip and extracted from another end face of the film strip. The film strip is sized to terminate flush with the first and second housing parts. Arranged in the second receiving space is a second light conductor which emits light through the gap.
