ABSTRACT:
An auto rear lamp has at least one mounting lug (1) formed on a back thereof that can be inserted into a mounting hole (3) for locking the rear lamp to an edge area (5) defining the mounting hole via a spring mounted locking element (2) on the mounting lug. The spring mounted locking element is pivotal about an elastically flexible area in a pivot line extending in a insertion direction (6). The mounting lug can be inserted into the mounting hole until a first edge (17) of the spring mounted locking element, which extends at least to the pivot line engages behind the edge area defining the mounting hole and a bearing surface (7, 8) of the lamp fits closely to the vehicle.
