Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the light beam of a lighting equipment to be set to the best inclination so as to be widely applied to various types of vehicles by arranging a long size lighting equipment along the rear projection trailing edge of a spoiler to enable the lighting equipment to be swung up and down. CONSTITUTION:A concave groove 11 which is formed to be opened afterward along the transversal direction, is installed at the rear projection trailing edge of a rear spoiler 1 which is installed on a trunk lid. A lighting equipment 2 is arranged in the concave groove 11, and a base plate 21 where numbers of bulbs 20 are arranged for the lighting equipment 2 is housed in a lens case 22. And an adjustable plate 4 arranged on the lower surface of the lighting equipment 2 is connected to a reinforcement frame 3 arranged inside the rear spoiler 1 with a screw 5. This configuration enables the lens case 22 to be swung up and down centering a support boss 23 by rotating the adjustable screw 5. This allows the light beam of the lighting equipment 2 to be titled up and down.
