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.

The vehicle interior component includes a front surface side space and a slit. A light emitting part, which is disposed on a vehicle interior outer side with respect to at least one of the vehicle interior outer side end of the panel lower portion of the upper panel and the vehicle interior outer side end of the panel upper portion of the lower panel and emits light emitted obliquely upward toward an inside of a vehicle interior through the slit, is provided.

The described examples relate to a lighting device for a motor vehicle with multiple optical fibers and multiple further fibers, which are woven to a two-dimensional fiber fabric. The multiple further fibers may be formed as multiple further optical fibers or as multiple non-optical fibers. The fiber fabric may be formed corresponding to a developed surface of multiple sides of a preset three-dimensional body, which may be generated by cutting and by selectively separating the multiple optical fibers and the multiple further fibers that are woven with each other, at a distal cut end of the fiber fabric.

A light system for a vehicle is provided herein. The light system includes a trim panel having an upper portion disposed proximately to an opening. A light guide is coupled to the panel. The light guide has an upper portion disposed between the trim panel and the opening and is configured to direct an excitation light therethrough. A light transmissive member is operably coupled with the light guide having a photoluminescent structure configured to convert an excitation light into a converted light. The converted light is directed towards a trim panel feature.

The invention relates to a device for generating light, in particular for a vehicle passenger compartment ceiling lamp (100), comprising: a separating tube (7) made of a material that is opaque to the radiation used, which is intended to be placed in an aperture (101) forming an exit for the illuminating light, is tubular along an axis orthogonal to the aperture and is of “c”-shaped radial cross section, forming an axial window (71), a bounding light guide (53) encircling the separating tube (7) having an annular exit dioptric interface (55), a base (57) in the axial extension of the exit dioptric interface, axial extensions (59), extending axially at least in segments the base (57), comprising entrance dioptric interfaces (61), which are placed facing bounding light sources (51), an illuminating light guide (33), which is located axially facing the illuminating light source (31) of the separating tube and axially removed from the aperture (101) comprising an entrance dioptric interface (35), which is placed facing an illuminating light source (31), a total reflection surface (39), from which light entering via the entrance dioptric interface (35) is reflected at a predefined angle of inclination with respect to the normal to the entrance dioptric interface (35), and an exit dioptric interface (37), via which the light reflected from the total reflection surface (39) is emitted in the direction of the aperture (101).
