The light source may be indirectly coupled to the illuminable surface part by means of a light guide element 14. The light guide may be made from a transparent plastics material, and may have elevated portions 20 which correspond with cut-outs 18 in an opaque front plate 18. The design element is intended to illuminated in low light conditions, whilst still providing an aesthetically pleasing logo during daytime.
