13. A glass assembly, comprising a trim, wherein the trim is for a vehicle and comprises a trim body, a flexible light emitter, and a light-transmitting member, wherein
the trim body has an inner surface and an outer surface opposite to the inner surface, and the flexible light emitter is attached to the inner surface;
the trim body defines a plurality of light-transmitting through holes, and the plurality of light-transmitting through holes extend through the inner surface and the outer surface and form a light-emitting region on the outer surface;
the light-transmitting member is located between the light-emitting region and the flexible light emitter;
the flexible light emitter is configured to generate light that exits through the light-transmitting member and the plurality of light-transmitting through holes;
a light guide recess is defined in the inner surface, and the light guide recess communicates with each of the plurality of light-transmitting through holes; and the light-transmitting member is located in the light guide recess; and
a ratio of a depth of the light guide recess in an axial direction of each of the plurality of light-transmitting through holes to a thickness of the trim body in the axial direction of each of the plurality of light-transmitting through holes is 1:2-0.6:1.
