The present invention is directed toward a lighting device of motor vehicle with an arrangement of at least two light conductors. Each conductor includes one coupling arm having a first cross section, a light conductor area with a second cross section, and a transition area located between the coupling arm and the light conductor area. The coupling arms include a respective first contact surface, and the transition areas of the light conductors include a respective second contact surface. The contact surfaces are formed in such a way that the coupling arm of the one light conductor inserts into the transition area of the respective other light conductor. Each one of the two coupling arms include deflectors on a rear side of the coupling arm, which deflect towards the front side, within a section of the transition area where each respective coupling arm fits into the other light conductor.
