Abstract

An illumination system for a vehicle container includes a fluid container, a photoluminescent portion disposed on the container, and a light source located proximate the container. The light source is configured to emit light at a first wavelength directed toward the photoluminescent portion. The photoluminescent portion is configured to convert the first wavelength to at least a second wavelength longer than the first wavelength to illuminate the container.
