Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1113216A2] A light-decoupling element (3,3',3) in a vehicle's catcher space (2) is fed by a remote source of light (5). A fibre-optic light guide (4) fits between the source of light and the light-decoupling element. To get an optically appealing impression of the catcher space, there is an extra catcher space lighting device that illuminates the catcher space of the light-decoupling element.
