Abstract: A vehicle exterior system separates an outer area from an inner area, the vehicle exterior system comprising a panel and a bumper. The panel covers lighting elements and comprises inner and outer panel sides. The bumper comprises inner and outer bumper sides. A hook-and-loop fastener, positioned between the panel and bumper, mechanically fastens them together. A seal member between the panel and bumper seals a path between an outer gap and the fastener. The panel is detachable from the bumper by unfastening the fastener.

Abstract: Illumination system (1) for a vehicle, including at least one lighting device (2), including at least two, individually controllable, light sources (3a, 3b), and a lens element (4), arranged downstream of the two light sources, and a vehicle body component (5).

Abstract: Shock-absorbing vehicle headlight system, having a vehicle frame element, a vehicle headlight housing, two release elements and a release mechanism connected to the vehicle frame element and designed to transition the vehicle headlight housing between a basic position and an adjustment position. The release mechanism includes a blocking element, switchable between a blocking position (BP) and a release position (RP). The vehicle headlight housing is held in the basic position in the BP and transitions to the adjustment position in the RP. A force transmission device mechanically couples the blocking element to the release elements and includes a rotary shaft and a control element. Displacement of each release element can be converted into rotary movement of the rotary shaft, which in turn can be converted into rotary movement of the control element, which is operatively connected to the blocking element in order to push the blocking element into the RP.
