Abstract
A crossmember module for attachment under an instrument panel of a motor vehicle. The crossmember module includes a metal tube surrounded at least in part with plastic. The metal tube has a central, tubular cross-section and flattened ends. Each flattened end has a first mounting hole and a plastic tab that is injection molded onto each flattened end. The crossmember also has a groove-shaped plastic duct for guiding a wiring harness relative to the metal tube. Different receivers may optionally be molded on in one piece in the plastic enabling the connection of various adjacent components.
