Pillar module
A pillar module may include: a pillar body, a drive unit connected to the pillar body and configured to support the pillar body so that the pillar body is movable, a first lighting unit installed on the pillar body and configured to create a first lighting pattern, a second lighting unit disposed to be spaced apart from the first lighting unit and configured to create a second lighting pattern, and a switching unit connected to the first lighting unit and the second lighting unit and configured to selectively expose the first lighting unit and the second lighting unit to the outside of the pillar body.
INDISCERNIBLE HEADLAMP ADJUSTER MECHANISM
An apparatus, according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a lamp housing that houses a headlamp adjuster assembly moveable between an adjustment position and an inaccessible stowed position within the lamp housing, and a holder to hold the headlamp adjuster assembly in the adjustment position. The holder is selectively removable such that the headlamp adjuster assembly retracts to the inaccessible stowed position. A method according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, biasing a headlamp adjuster toward the inaccessible stowed position, installing the holder to hold the headlamp adjuster external to the lamp housing against the biasing force, adjusting a position of a headlamp with the headlamp adjuster, and removing the holder such that the headlamp adjuster retracts to the inaccessible stowed position.

ROTATABLE LIGHT BAR FOR MOTOR VEHICLE SPORT BARS
A light bar for a motor vehicle has a plurality of lights mounted to an elongated support member is rotatably connected to opposing end walls of a rectangular frame. An offset cam is connected to the support member and moved by an actuating mechanism between a first and second position which cause the support member and lights to rotate about an axis to corresponding first and second positions. When the support frame and lights are in a first position they are shielded by and substantially enclosed by the sides and ends of the rectangular frame, and when in a second position the lights extend above and generally parallel to the rectangular frame to shine above and forward of the rectangular frame. A power switch energizes the actuating mechanism to move the lights and support member between the first and second positions.

Vehicle light assemblies
A vehicle includes a bezel defining a lamp cavity. A lamp assembly includes a base slide coupled with the bezel. A lamp slide is slidably coupled with the base slide. A housing bracket is coupled to the lamp slide and to a lamp housing. An actuator is coupled to the lamp slide and configured to move the lamp housing through the lamp cavity.

GAS HAULER WITH AN AWNING WITH A BUILT IN LIGHT
A tank trailer includes a tank having an outer surface face and an inner surface and a central longitudinal vertical plane extending between the first end and the second end. The outer surface faces away from the central longitudinal vertical plane and the inner surface faces towards the central longitudinal vertical plane. The outer surface and the inner surface define an interior volume adapted to be filled with material. The tank trailer may further include a set of ground-engaging wheels supporting the tank trailer from below, a bar positioned proximate the outer surface of the tank and a light source provided on the bar. The tank may further include a frame member operatively engaged with the bar and a sheet material extending between the bar and the frame member. The frame member is movable between a first position and a second position.
Vehicle utility light assembly
A vehicle utility light assembly is disclosed in which an elongated body portion functions to be stowable in a first position within a vehicle body panel. The elongated body portion further functions to be vertically-releasable from the first position to a second position, and being operable to selectively illuminate the vehicle body panel from above by a light source of the elongated body portion.
