Housing module for a lighting element

A housing module for a lighting element for a vehicle, wherein the housing module comprises:

• a base body;
• a fastening interface provided on the base body for fastening the housing module to a lighting element;
• a receptacle provided on the base body for arranging a cable holder, wherein the receptacle comprises an opening and a plurality of sliding elements partially surrounding the opening,
• wherein the plurality of sliding elements are arranged on and protrude from a first side of a surface of the base body comprising the opening, wherein the plurality of sliding elements are configured to urge a plurality of flexible latching elements of the cable holder projecting from a second side opposite the first side through the surface onto the first side from a locking position to a release position when the cable holder rotates in the opening,
• wherein the plurality of latching elements overlie the surface by an undercut and thereby conditionally secure the cable holder to the housing module in the locking position, and the plurality of latching elements are compressed so as to be movable through the opening to release the cable holder from the housing module in the release position,
• wherein each of the plurality of sliding elements are spaced apart from each other about a periphery of the opening, and wherein the opening between respective ones of the plurality of sliding elements defines a plurality of contact surfaces on the first side of the surface of the base body, such that the plurality of latching elements engage the plurality of contact surfaces when the cable holder is in the locking position to prevent withdrawal of the cable holder from the opening, and wherein the plurality of sliding elements urge the plurality of latching elements radially inward during rotation of the cable holder into the release position.
