Lighting equipment is indispensable for automobiles. Automotive lighting equipment mainly functions as illuminating lights, to illuminate the road traffic signs, passersby and other vehicles so as to distinguish road signs from obstacles; and as signal lights, to tell the vehicle is there and is moving. Since the early 1900s, lighting equipment has been used on or in vehicles. The lighting equipment was initially kerosene lamps and acetylene lamps, and then came to electric lights, from vacuum incandescent burners to gas incandescent burners, halogen lamp and gas discharge lamps. Presently, LED lights, a new-generation automotive lighting equipment, are popular for their small size, long life-span, low power consumption and fast response.

In 2007, various applications of LED products will enter a rapid growth period. The application in mobile phones tends to slow down while the application in automobiles and other fields is expected to see a sharp rise. Generally speaking, each automobile needs 100 LEDs for interior such as instrument panel and reading light and 200 for exterior such as tail lights, brake lights, indicators and head lights, etc. Currently, nearly all the Europe-based car makers adopt LED lights inside cars. As for LED exterior application, the rate of European and Japanese car makers have changed the third brake light of their products to be LED light is over 80%.
