Abstract
An interior furnishing part for use in motor vehicles has a covering material sheet forming the exterior or facing surface of the furnishing part backed by a support part with a padding material between the covering material and the support part. Initially, the material sheet is unshaped and is shaped in a mold. During molding, the material sheet is provided with a recess or rib in the exterior or facing surface. After the molding operation, a decorative or attachment seam is sewn in the exterior surface of the furnishing part with the sewing machine guided by the recess or rib. The seam extends at least partly through the interior furnishing part. A foamable material can be used as the padding material.
