ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for providing illumination on a vehicle utilizing light conducting, fluorescent substance containing sheets of material. In each embodiment, an exposed edge of the sheet of material is used to provide the intense, illuminated strip of light desired. Either natural light or a dedicated source of electric light is used to illuminate a light gathering portion of a sheet of this material which conducts the light to the edge to produce a brilliant strip of light. The strips can be disposed adjacent an automobile light, along seams in the body or along a spoiler disposed on the automobile. These sheets of material can also be positioned such that the edges thereof illuminate the location of lock cylinder, or the location of a door handle, or a vehicle logo. Retrofittable strips are also described.
