Abstract
A shock-reducing lamp assembly adapted for mounting on a vehicle. The assembly includes a housing defining a cavity having an open end and a lens connected to the housing enclosing the open end. An integral resilient mount includes a tubular central portion having a first end and a second end, with a pair of spaced mounting feet disposed adjacent to the first end and a second pair of spaced mounting feet positioned adjacent the second end. Each of the feet has a mounting aperture and the first pair of feet extends in a first plane and the second pair of feet extends in a second plane, with the first and second planes being spaced and being substantially parallel. The assembly further includes a metallic socket telescopically received in the central portion. The housing includes components for positioning the mount so that a lamp held in the socket is in operative relationship to the lens.
