A lighting member includes a light guiding element, and a housing including a cover element and a light-guiding-element attachment claw. The cover element is formed as a frame shape, is capable of deforming elastically, and covers an outer peripheral face of the light guiding element over the entire circumference. The light-guiding-element attachment claw is disposed integrally with the cover element, and protrudes diametrically toward an inner side beyond the outer peripheral face of the light guiding element. The housing has an inner peripheral face facing the outer peripheral face of the light guiding element, and further includes a larger-clearance portion and smaller-clearance portion. The larger-clearance portion provides a larger clearance between the inner peripheral face of the cover element and the outer peripheral face of the light guiding element than does the smaller-clearance portion between them.
