Abstract: A vehicular light guide member includes a main body part and a light entrance part. The main body part has an exit surface and a plurality of specular surfaces facing the exit surface. Some of the specular surfaces constitute a displaced section that is closer to or farther from the exit surface than a reference section constituted of the remains of the specular surfaces. The specular surfaces as such allow light to be uniformly emitted through the exit surface.
