Abstract: A lighting assembly for a vehicle interior includes an electrically conductive connector configured to couple to a circuit board and to electrically couple to a light-emitting diode (LED). The electrically conductive connector is configured to interface with a fuse bulb connector of a fuse bulb mount to couple the lighting assembly to the fuse bulb mount and to electrically couple the LED to the fuse bulb connector, and the electrically conductive connector comprises an interface configured to couple an electrical conductor, separate from the fuse bulb connector, to the electrically conductive connector.

Abstract: A slide-on-rod assembly includes a tube and a carriage configured to move within the tube. The carriage has a first contact surface, the carriage includes a wing rotatably coupled to a body of the carriage, the wing has a second contact surface, the first contact surface of the carriage is configured to contact a corresponding first contact surface of the tube, and the second contact surface of the wing is configured to contact a corresponding second contact surface of the tube. The slide-on-rod assembly also includes a biasing member coupled to the at least one wing and to the body of the carriage. The biasing member is configured to drive the first contact surface of the carriage into contact with the corresponding first contact surface of the tube and the second contact surface of the wing into contact with the corresponding second contact surface of the tube.
