- a first LED and a second LED each having a different color;
a first light guiding lens and a second light guiding lens that are disposed in front of the first LED and the second LED, respectively, the first light guiding lens and the second light guiding lens configured to guide light rays emitted from the first LED and the second LED, respectively, to cause the light rays to exit through respective light exiting faces of the first and second guiding lenses forward; and
a diffusion lens disposed in front of the first light guiding lens and the second light guiding lens, configured to diffuse the light rays exiting from the first light guiding lens and the second light guiding lens while allowing the light rays to pass therethrough forward, whereinthe light exiting faces of the first light guiding lens and the second light guiding lens are each configured to be long and juxtaposed with each other in a direction perpendicular to a lengthwise direction thereof with the lengthwise directions coincide with each other, andthe diffusion lens has a long shape so as to cover the entire front light exiting faces of the first and second light guiding lenses.

Abstract
A vehicle lighting unit can include a first LED and a second LED each having a different color; a first light guiding lens and a second light guiding lens disposed in front of the first and second LEDs, respectively, configured to guide light rays from the first and second LED, respectively, to cause the light rays to exit therethrough forward; and a diffusion lens disposed in front of the first and second light guiding lenses, configured to diffuse the light rays from the first and second light guiding lenses. The light exiting faces of the first and second light guiding lenses can be configured to be long and adjacent to each other in the vertical direction with the lengthwise directions coincide with each other. The diffusion lens can have a long shape so as to cover the entire front light exiting faces of the first and second light guiding lenses.
