ABSTRACT:
A fiber optic light guide for a vehicle lighting system has a light transmissive core and a cladding provided circumferentially about the core. A light absorptive viscous fluid is disposed intermediate the light transmissive core and the cladding, so that if the fiber optic light guide is severed, and the light transmissive core is exposed, the viscous fluid will flow over and cover the exposed light transmissive core.
