The invention relates to an optical module for a light-emitting device of a motor vehicle including a first light source able to emit light rays. A light guide including a first coupling face able to receive light rays emitted by the first light source and able to scatter light rays propagating through the light guide over all or some of its perimeter. A transparent or translucent exit lens, with the exit lens defining a housing in which most of the light guide lies, so that light rays scattered by the light guide pass through the exit lens. A deviating member placed in the housing facing the light guide and arranged to redirect light rays scattered by the light guide toward this deviating member in the direction of the exit lens. A sealing member arranged to keep the deviating member in the housing and to obturate the housing.

A system is provided for mounting a lamp having a plurality of different types of mounting members. One of the mounting members is a rigid tray mountable by fasteners flush upon a surface of a vehicle to enable an on-surface mounting mode, and other of said mounting members, such as a grommet or bracket, are mountable at least partially in an opening or hole when present along such surface of a vehicle to enable an inset mounting mode. The different mounting members each engage a common shape housing of the lamp, such as round or oval, so that by selection of one of the mounting members, on-surface or inset mounting of the lamp can readily be achieved. One or more common engagement features are provided along the housing to facilitate engagement of the housing of the lamp by mounting members in on-surface and inset mounting modes.

A replacement lamp assembly for replacing a vehicle lamp that has been broken out leaving at least one cylindrical lamp flange is provided. The replacement lamp assembly includes a vehicle lamp having a housing with a base, a lens and an interior portion with at least one light source positioned therein and an attachment member. The attachment member includes an upper lamp retaining section having a first cylindrical wall with an inner surface and an outer surface, a second cylindrical wall with an inner surface and an outer surface spaced apart from the first cylindrical wall and connected thereto by an upper edge, wherein a lower end of second cylindrical wall abuts the at least one flange. A mounting section is formed integral with the lamp retaining section and includes a third cylindrical wall with an inner surface and an outer surface. The outer surface includes a plurality of angled projections extending outward therefrom in a direction towards the lamp retaining section for engaging irregular edges of the at least one flange.

A fastener for a vehicle lamp assembly has an adjustable stud and grommet. Positioning grooves on the stud interact with positioning fingers on the grommet in a ratcheting fashion to allow more accurate alignment of the lamp assembly prior to securing the lamp assembly to a vehicle.

A light-transmitting assembly and a vehicle are provided in the disclosure. The light-transmitting assembly includes a light-transmitting substrate and a light source assembly. The light-transmitting substrate defines a mounting through-hole. The light source assembly is connected to the light-transmitting substrate and positioned at the mounting through-hole. The light source assembly includes a box, a lampshade, and a light-emitting element. The lampshade is detachably connected to the box. The lampshade and the box cooperatively define an accommodating space. The light-emitting element is received in the accommodating space. The light-transmitting assembly of the disclosure can be assembled and disassembled quickly and repeatedly, thereby realizing quick replacement of the light-emitting element.

An LED taillight with an integrated GPS tracking system is disclosed therein. The GPS tracking system is hidden behind the LED portion of the LED taillight so that the GPS tracking system is not noticeable by someone inspecting a trailer on which the LED taillight is installed. Additionally, power sent to the LED taillight to power the LEDs also recharge a battery associated with the GPS tracking system and power the GPS tracking system during use.
