ABSTRACT:
An in-vehicle illuminating device capable of preventing light emitted from a light source from coming directly into a passenger's sight. An in-vehicle illuminating device1includes a housing2, a reflective member18provided within the housing2, a light source or LEDs10orienting a light axis of light emitted therefrom to the reflective member18. Reflected light obtained by allowing the reflective member18to reflect the light emitted from the LEDs40is irradiated to the outside of the housing2, thus preventing light emitted from the LEDs40from coming directly into a passenger's sight.
