Abstract
A vehicle seat back assembly having a seat back shell to which a foam and a skin layer may be applied to finish a rear facing surface of the seat back shell. First and second seat back support frame members are received in pockets formed by the seat back shell and an inner shell. According to the method of making a vehicle seat back, a seat back shell is formed from a rigid structural material. In one embodiment, the foam layer is molded in situ onto the rear facing surface of the seat back shell and the skin layer is preferably formed over the foam layer. The foam layer and skin layers may also be omitted, leaving the rear facing surface uncovered. A peripheral portion of the skin layer is bonded to the inner surface of the seat back shell. A separately covered cushion is assembled to the inner portion of the seat back shell.
