The described examples relate to a lighting device for a motor vehicle with multiple optical fibers and multiple further fibers, which are woven to a two-dimensional fiber fabric. The multiple further fibers may be formed as multiple further optical fibers or as multiple non-optical fibers. The fiber fabric may be formed corresponding to a developed surface of multiple sides of a preset three-dimensional body, which may be generated by cutting and by selectively separating the multiple optical fibers and the multiple further fibers that are woven with each other, at a distal cut end of the fiber fabric.
