Automotive Indicator Light Specification Example for Dealership Service: Adjustable Type
Automotive Indicator Light Specification Example for Dealership Service: Adjustable Type
This is a worked specification for automotive indicator light in a adjustable type 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 adjustable type version exists because the duty cycle on dealership service is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually inconsistent hardness between lots.
Example specification

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Stainless Steel, 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
- surface grinding
- precision stamping
- sintering
- rubber vulcanisation
- cold forging
- CNC machining
Where this example applies
Programmes that run adjustable type most often specify this build for dealership service. Related applications include emergency vehicles, workshop replacements, trailer axles, boat trailers, aftermarket retail.
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
How is packing specified?
Individual packing, inner box quantity and carton marking are confirmed at quotation stage so the cartons arrive ready for your warehouse.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 1000 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.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 14 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 days once you have seen the first piece.
Share a sample or a drawing and we will quote against a written specification, not against a photograph.
