Vehicular exterior rearview mirror assembly with illumination module

A vehicular exterior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror reflective element and an illumination module that includes an illumination source and a freeformed lens optic. When the illumination source is operated to emit light, emitted light passes through the freeformed lens optic. The freeformed lens optic is configured such that, with the vehicular exterior rearview mirror assembly mounted at a side of a vehicle, light emitted by the illumination source that passes through the freeformed lens optic provides ground lighting that illuminates a ground region located at the side of the equipped vehicle. The ground lighting includes (a) ground illumination of the illuminated ground region and (b) within the ground illumination of the illuminated ground region, a logo formed by the freeformed lens optic. The logo formed by the freeformed lens optic has a light intensity greater than any light intensity of the ground illumination of the illuminated ground region.

Selectively illuminable metallic looking trims and their methods of manufacture

A trim for an object and its method of manufacture involve providing a transparent or translucent substrate defining a top surface, applying an opaque layer above the top surface of the substrate, the opaque layer defining one or more apertures through which light can pass, and applying one or more translucent metallic-looking layers above a top surface of the opaque layer. In some implementations, the trim is a selectively illuminable trim whereby a light source is arranged beneath a bottom surface of the substrate, the light source being configured to output light through the substrate, the one or more apertures defined by the opaque layer, and the one or more metallic-looking layers.

ACCENT LIGHTING SYSTEM FOR AN INTERIOR CABIN OF A VEHICLE

An accent lighting system is configured to provide accented light onto a desired location. The accent lighting system includes an accent adapter assembly that is configured to securely couple to a light source. The accent adapter assembly includes an accenting plate that is configured to accent light that is emitted from the light source. A method of securing an accent lighting system within an internal cabin of a vehicle includes removing an existing light source from an aperture of a composite panel, securing an accent adapter assembly to the existing light source to form the accent lighting system, and securing the accent lighting system in the aperture of the composite panel.
