The present application relates to a method for fabricating a vehicle interior trim part. The proposed method comprises the step of providing a glass panel with a backside and a first and a second region. In a further step, a first stiffener is attached to the first region of the glass panel. Thereby, a stiffened region of the glass panel is formed. The method further comprises the step of bending the second region of the glass panel by cold forming so that a bent region of the glass panel is formed in a region adjacent to the stiffened region. The method further comprises the step of holding the glass panel in shape using a means of fixation.

This document relates to a molding tool for forming and back-injecting a bendable sheet including a mold that includes a first mold half and a second mold half. The first half is arranged opposite the second half forming a cavity for receiving the bendable sheet and a melt. Further, the mold includes at least one pin for holding the bendable sheet and the pin is retractable in response to a force exerted on the pin by a pressure of the injected melt during back injection.

Molding tool and method for forming and back-injecting a bendable sheet

A panel for a vehicle interior including a cover layer and a mask layer, wherein the cover layer has a frontside and a backside, and the mask layer is disposed at the backside of the cover layer. The cover layer includes a semi-transparent layer. The cover layer has a light transmittance of at most 90 percent in a direction perpendicular to the frontside, wherein the mask layer comprises a transparent display region and an opaque region, wherein the opaque region is located adjacent to the display region.
