Abstract
The present invention provides a lamp for a horizontal operating position within a vehicle headlight assembly. The lamp, as seen with respect to the vehicle, comprises a LED light source for emitting light mainly to one side, and a reflective member for shielding front and lower parts of the light emitted by the LED light source and reflecting them to desired directions. The present invention also provides a vehicle headlight assembly comprising such a lamp, and, further, a reflector for shaping the light emitted by the LED light source into a beam, and a shuttle, adjustable between positions to shape the beam into a high beam or a low beam.
