The insert includes a plurality of thin wall sections defining a plurality of light tunnels. The plurality of light tunnels includes at least a first light tunnel defining a head portion and an upper leading arm portion. In one embodiment, the plurality of light tunnels further includes at least a second light tunnel defining a trailing arm portion and a third light tunnel defining at least in part an upper portion of the trailing arm portion, wherein the third light tunnel extends approximately midway along a length of the second light tunnel.
