Overview

This HTS subcategory, 8512.90.60.00, encompasses "Other" parts of electrical lighting equipment that fall under heading 8512. Specifically, it serves as a residual category for parts of lighting apparatus used on cycles or motor vehicles that are not specifically classified elsewhere within the "Parts: Of lighting equipment" hierarchy. This includes components that are integral to the functioning of vehicle lighting systems but do not fit the more narrowly defined categories.

To distinguish this category from its sibling, 8512.90.40.00 ("Of a kind used on bicycles"), it is important to note that this residual "Other" category captures parts for a broader range of motor vehicles, including automobiles, trucks, and motorcycles, where the lighting parts are not exclusively designed for bicycles. While both relate to lighting equipment parts, the primary distinguishing factor is the intended vehicle application beyond just bicycles.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 8512.90.60.00 relies on a process of elimination. If a part is identified as a component of electrical lighting equipment for cycles or motor vehicles and does not meet the specific criteria for any other subclassification under 8512.90, it will be classified here. Examples might include specialized mounting brackets, certain types of wiring harnesses specific to lighting systems, or protective covers for lighting units not exclusively used on bicycles.
