ABSTRACT:
A lamp housing is removably mounted in a panel opening by a detent system that exerts a wedge lock action against edge areas of the panel opening. The lamp housing includes a light-transmitting fascia plate normally seated against the panel and at least one swingable detent adapted to exert pressure against an edge of the panel opening. The detent has a swing axis spaced an appreciable distance from the wedge lock surface so that the wedge lock surface has a substantial travel distance between the operating and retracted positions of the detent.
