Warning light and method of assembly thereof

A warning light for attachment to a vehicle comprising:

• a light transmissive dome having sidewalls terminating in a bottom edge, the bottom edge having a plurality of spaced apart attachment regions, the attachment regions having a staging area, a longitudinally aligned locking area, and a first retaining lip laterally spaced from an outside surface of the sidewall and extending upward from the bottom edge, the staging area comprising an interruption of said first retaining lip and a staging surface extending laterally from the outside surface of the sidewall and communicating with the locking area, portions of said first retaining lip defining a locking channel between the first retaining lip and the outside surface of the sidewall;
• a longitudinally extending base having sidewalls terminating in a top edge, the top edge having an exterior projection laterally spaced from an outside surface of the sidewall, and the exterior projection including a second retaining lip extending downward from the top edge;
• a plurality of clamps, each clamp having a face portion, first and second engagement jaws projecting from the face portion, the first jaw being receivable in a staging area in a first longitudinal position, the first and second jaws configured to engage the first retaining lip of the dome and the second retaining lip of the base in the locking area at a second longitudinal position, a fastener portion located on said face portion and a fastener for reversibly drawing the first and second engagement jaws together, whereby when the fastener is tightened the clamps frictionally engage the first and second retaining lips preventing longitudinal movement of each clamp from the locking area thereby securing said dome to said base to form a warning light assembly which defines an interior cavity;
• a plurality of light generating assemblies installed in the interior cavity of the warning light.
