Automotive light bulbs are used in lamp-based vehicle lights which provide visibility of the road and vehicle for safer driving. Conventional vehicle lights are constructed around the lamp to provide lighting specific to the application. Other components, e.g., the housing, optics and sockets, are used to control the distribution of emitted light, protect the light source from extrinsic damages, and aesthetically modify the appearance of the light source. The lights are mounted or integrated to the front, rear, sides, interior, and in some cases the top and bottom of a motor vehicle, delivering just the right amount and color of light to see or to be seen by others. A motor vehicle is equipped with various types of lights, which may include headlights, taillights, daytime running lights, turn signal lights (front, rear, sides), fog lights, stop lights, auxiliary driving lights, parking lights, side marker lights, clearance lights, identification lights, license plate lights, back-up lights, reversing lights, glove compartment lights, work lights, interior courtesy lights, footwell lights, dashboard lights, reading and map lights.
