Abstract
A laminated light guide and component carrier includes a polymeric material body having a first face. A light emitting diode is positioned on the first face. A connector is positioned on the first face. A through aperture is created in the body positioned proximate to the light emitting diode. A light guide of a light transmissive polymeric material is overmolded onto the first face proximate to and covering the light emitting diode and filling the through aperture, and omitted from the space envelope containing the connector. An opaque polymeric material coating layer is affixed onto the first face outside of the light guide.
