Car Rear Lamps Specification Example for City Buses: Low Maintenance Version
Car Rear Lamps Specification Example for City Buses: Low Maintenance Version
This is a worked specification for car rear lamps in a low maintenance version programme. It is the document we would send a buyer who asks what exactly they are getting: the material, the dimensions that are actually controlled, the finish, and the checks that happen before anything is packed.
The low maintenance version version exists because the duty cycle on city buses is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually a fitment that looked right on paper and failed on the bench.
Example specification
| Item | Car Rear Lamps |
|---|---|
| Application | City Buses |
| Version | Low Maintenance Version |
| Base material | Carbon Fibre Composite |
| Controlled dimensions | 6 key dimensions, recorded per lot |

| Finish | zinc plated |
| MOQ | 200 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 10 working days, 5 days per revision |
| Compliance | SGS |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Carbon Fibre Composite, in this example.
- List the dimensions that are actually controlled and the tolerance on each.
- Name the finish and what it has to survive.
- State the inspection level and who pays when a lot fails.
Processes involved
- assembly line testing
- electroplating
- robot welding
- injection moulding
- CNC machining
- surface grinding
Where this example applies
Programmes that run low maintenance version most often specify this build for city buses. Related applications include agricultural trailers, off-road bikes, long-haul trucks, workshop replacements, assembly programmes.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 4.0 sampling on the finished lot.
- Finish inspection under agreed lighting.
- Carton drop test on the first lot of a new packing specification.
Questions buyers ask
Can you match an existing sample?
Send a sample and we will reverse-engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk starts.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 200 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
What happens if a lot fails inspection?
The lot is re-inspected against the golden sample, and replacement pieces ship on the next available booking at our cost.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. SGS documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
Share a sample or a drawing and we will quote against a written specification, not against a photograph.
