Abstract

An automobile door handle with indicator lights, has a recess for firmly receiving a circuit board having a plurality of light emitting members spaced apart lengthwise on the surface, an opening through the bottom of the recess for allowing conducting wires to pass therethrough, and an adjacent outer peripheral groove. A transparent cover is dimensioned and shaped to fit snugly over the outer peripheral groove and has more than one spaced projection protruded from one surface adapted to be abutted against the circuit board for fastening. Adhesive is applied to the conducting wires in the opening, a joining portion of the outer peripheral groove and the cover so as to provide the assembled door handle with indictor lights withwaterproof and electricity leakage prevention characteristics.
