Abstract

A vehicle light includes a housing having at least one first slot and at least one light strip made by plastic, fluorescent agent and proliferation powder is engaged with the at least one first slot. At least one first LED light unit is connected to the back of the at least one light strip and has a first circuit board that is shaped to be matched with the at least one light strip. The first circuit board has multiple LED chips located corresponding to the at least one light strip. A back board and a cover are fixed to the back and the front of the housing. The vehicle light has simple structure and provides desired light patterns.

Claims
