ABSTRACT:
A vehicular lamp suitable to be employed as a snowplow light employs two twin-element bulb lamps of the bayonet type as combined turn signal and parking lights, and has a lampholder arranged for mounting both the lamps. The lampholder includes a conductive bulb retainer plate and a pair of conductive resilient contact strips disposed in parallel with each other and in parallel relation with and spaced from the retainer plate. A lampholder body of a non-conductive plastic material mounts the bulb retainer plate and the contact strips, with the latter enjoying at least limited flexing motion towards and away from the retainer plate. A non-conducting resilient member, which can be an elastomeric compression grommet, is seated in the lampholder body behind the contact strips at the location of the end pins of the lamp, and urges the contact strips into contact with the associated lamp end pins. The housing body of the lamp assembly has an overall axis of symmetry, and includes a provision for attaching a mounting post on either of two positions so that the same assembly could be used as either a right side or left side lamp assembly.
