Abstract
A molded part, in particular to an interior trim part of a motor vehicle, consists of a pressed carrier, formed from a fiber-plastic composite, a carrier structure made of a plastic for fixedly arranging the molded part on a motor vehicle, and a light source. The carrier structure is molded with an injection molding method to a surface of a rear side of the pressed carrier such that the carrier structure lies flat directly against the surface, in particular the entire surface, of the rear side of the pressed carrier. The pressed carrier is at least translucent, and the carrier structure is opaque. The carrier structure has at least one cutout, which forms a through opening to the surface of the pressed carrier. The light source is arranged for backlighting purposes on the rear side of the pressed carrier such that, with appropriate use, light is visible on a viewing side of the pressed carrier.
