Abstract: An exterior mirror assembly including an attachment member for supporting an approach light. The attachment member interconnects a mirror housing to a vehicle and includes an opening for receiving a lens. Light projects through the lens from the attachment member in order to illuminate a predetermined area in proximity to the vehicle. A light source may be housed within the support member or, alternatively, a light source may be housed interior to the vehicle and a light path transport light from the light source to the lens for projection from the support member.

Abstract: A downwardly directed light (38) is mounted within a horizontally extending rubbing strip (24) on a vehicle door (18) below the level of a window in the door and a light is mounted within said rubbing strip. This arrangement illuminates a lower part of the side of the vehicle and the adjacent ground. Its installation does not require any extensive modification to the body panels of the vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle door mirror having a housing. The housing connects to a vehicle door via a stem. An intermediate member is inserted between the housing and the vehicle door to effect relatively smooth abutment between the intermediate member and each of the housing and the vehicle door. The cylindrical stem extends from the housing through the intermediate member and through the vehicle door. The stem includes primary engagement members to engage with complementary engagement members formed in a mounting hole of the door. The engagement members prevent removal from the mounting hole when the stem is in a predetermined orientation. A spring is compressed between the housing and the stem to cause retraction of the stem inward of the housing. Such inward movement urges the primary engagement members into engagement with the complementary engagement members.

Abstract: An exterior rear view mirror assembly for a motor vehicle, comprises a first mounting plate pivotally mounted within a housing and a mirror glass secured to a second mounting plate. The first mounting plate has a pair of spaced parallel projections, each of which contains a groove confronting the groove 38) in the other projection. A pair of resilient beams are secured at their ends to the second mounting plate by spaced-apart support formations so as to engage in the grooves in the projections on the first mounting plate. One of the grooves contains protuberances positioned to engage with the beam at an intermediate location between its ends. The second mounting plate can be released from the first mounting plate by bending the beam round the protuberances so as to allow the other beam to disengage from the projections.

Abstract: A child's safety seat comprises a seat body having a seat portion, a back rest and vertically extending side walls projecting forwardly from the side edges of the back rest. First and second guide means adjacent to the junction between the seat portion and the back rest for serve to locate a lap portion of an adult seat belt. A head rest is mounted on the back rest by means permitting adjustment of the distance between the head rest and the seat portion. Third guide means is positioned so as to guide a shoulder portion of an adult belt between the back rest and the head rest.

Abstract: A control valve assembly for a vehicle dual hydraulic braking system in which hydraulic fluid from a distributor chamber can be supplied to one or both of a pair of outlets for connection to brakes on opposite sides of a vehicle. The assembly incorporates a pressure control valve operable to supply fluid under pressure to the chamber from an outlet for connection to a pressure source, irrespective of whether one or both of two separate brake-applying valves are to be operated, and a one-way valve is located on the upstream side of the pressure control valve to prevent flow in a reverse direction. A back-up piston works in a bore in communication with the chamber, and is provided to pressurize fluid in the chamber after an exhaust valve has closed and a pressure control valve has opened.
