Abstract
The cover lens and the back panel of a rear lamp set are molded to form chambers of predetermined sizes to accommodate safety sensors therein, so that the safety sensors and the rear lamp sets are integrally assembled to a vehicle without spoiling the esthetic appearance of the tail portion of the vehicle. The built in safety sensors, such as cameras, distance detecting devices and sonar sets, help a driver to understand conditions around the tail portion of the vehicle.
