<p>An improved housing for an electrically operated vehicle backup alarm for mounting on a vehicle bumper or other structural component (75) in preformed, standard size receptacles (37). A tubular body (61) fabricated of plastic or nylon composite includes internal mounting lugs for removeably mounting modular electronic components (72) and a sound transducer (77). A removable rear cover and epoxy (85) potting material seals the alarm components against dirt and moisture intrusion. Resilient mounting lugs (87) or fingers (88) external to the housing (60) allow the housing (60) to be mounted within preformed mounting receptacles. The mounting lugs (87) or fingers (88) are deformed slightly when the housing (60) is inserted into the mounting receptacle and snapped into engagement with the edges of the mounting receptacle (37) securely holding the housing (60) in place within the mounting receptacle (37).</p> |
