An apparatus including a light housing; a first light fixed to the light housing; an attachment device configured to temporarily attach the light housing with the light to a front windshield of a vehicle; and wherein the first light is fixed to the light housing in a manner so that light from the first light is projected outwards from the light housing in a visual field of less than one hundred and eighty degrees. The attachment device, is configured to attach the light housing to the front windshield so that the visual field of the first light does not project into either of both eyes of a driver of the vehicle. The light housing may be substantially cylindrical and may have a flat surface, configured to be attached and to abut the front windshield. The apparatus may further include a first brightness setting mechanism attached to the light housing.

An indirect lighting structure for a vehicle roof provides indirect lighting to at least a part of a roof glass through a light guide formed along a guide rail. The indirect lighting structure includes: a guide rail configured to support a roof glass positioned on the guide rail; a light source unit positioned at one end in a longitudinal direction of the guide rail; and a light guide which is configured to be in contact with the light source unit and positioned along the guide rail, in which the light guide is configured such that at least a part of the light guide is in contact with and inserted into the guide rail so as to guide light introduced from the light source to illuminate a pattern portion.

An electroluminescent assembly for a vehicle storage compartment and a method for installing the same on a vehicle storage compartment includes a transparent panel and a door, each at least partially defining the storage compartment. Light emitted by the electroluminescent assembly illuminates the interior of the storage compartment, and is also transmitted through the transparent panel to thereby illuminate a portion of the vehicle that is at an exterior of the storage compartment.
