Abstract

A vehicle lighting unit can accurately dispose the light incident portion of a light guiding member and a light source with respect to each other while the light guiding member can be exposed on the front side without the provision of a large opening to a supporting member for supporting the light guiding member. The vehicle lighting unit can include an LED substrate in which an LED is installed, a light guiding member having a light incident portion on which light from the LED can be incident, and an extension configured to support the light guiding member. The extension can have an insertion hole formed therein, through which the light incident portion of the light guiding member is inserted from a front side thereof. The LED substrate can be disposed so that the LED faces and approaches to the insertion hole of the extension and attached to the extension from its rear side through a bracket so that the LED substrate is secured to a rear surface of the bracket. The bracket can have a guiding portion configured to guide the light incident portion of the light guiding member to be inserted to the insertion hole to allow the light incident portion to face the LED.
