Abstract: A vehicle lamp guard 10 is formed of spaced parallel flat bars 12 interconnected at the respective ends by straps 18, 20. The guard can be secured at the rear of a vehicle by a quick release fastener associated with the strap 20. A pair of pins 24 are provided at the side of the strap 18 remote from the bars 12 and are adapted to snap fit into a channel of a profiled strip 22. The latter can be bonded to the side of the vehicle and thereby provide for quick and easy fixing and release of the lamp guard while enhancing the aesthetic appearance thereof.
