A molded component assembly (10) includes a printed circuit board (12) with a first face (14) and an oppositely facing second face (15). Multiple light emitting diodes (20, 20', 20", 20'", 20"", 22) are mounted on a first portion (21) of the first face (14). Multiple electronics components (16) are mounted on a second portion (23) of the first face (14). A light guide (34) of a light translucent polymeric material is positioned over the light emitting diodes (20, 20', 20", 20'", 20"", 22) and the electronic components (16) . The light guide (34) includes: a contact surface (38) directly contacting the first portion (21) of the first face (14) except at locations of the light emitting diodes (20, 20', 20", 20'", 20"", 22); a cavity (106) created in the contact surface (38), the electronics components (16) located within the cavity (106) when the contact surface (38) directly contacts the first portion (21) of the first face (14); and a through hole (64) extending through a body of the light guide (34) and opening into the cavity (106).
