LIGHTING DEVICE IN CABIN

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress the illuminating light from becoming an eyesore for a front seat occupant by using a clear member, and suppress an upper part of an instrument panel itself or an operation part of equipment or the like disposed there from reflecting on a front glass or a side glass when the lighting member having a light guiding property is disposed on the instrument panel disposed in the front part of a cabin. SOLUTION: In the lighting device in the cabin, the lighting member 2 having the light guiding property is disposed on the instrument panel 10 in the front part of the cabin. A practically transparently visible clear clear cover body 13 is disposed in the vicinity of the lighting member 2 of the instrument panel, and the illuminating light from the lighting member is illuminated in the inside of the clear clear cover body from the upper edge part of the clear clear cover body toward the lower part, and set so that the illuminating light does not directly enter the visual range of an occupant sitting on the front seat of the cabin.
