Abstract: The disclosure discloses a vehicle interior panel for covering an airbag and a method of fabricating a vehicle interior panel for covering an airbag. The vehicle interior panel includes a substrate with an opening, a chute channel assembly inserted into the opening, a surface skin, and a foam layer disposed between the surface skin and the substrate. The chute channel assembly includes a wall section surrounding a chute channel for the airbag and a cover plate covering the chute channel and closing the opening. The cover plate includes an airbag door, wherein an outer surface of the cover plate is in contact with the foam layer. The outer surface of the cover plate has a rough surface structure, the outer surface having a surface roughness parameter Ra of at least 4 ?m.

Abstract: A storage device (6) having at least one front portion (14) and one rear portion (12) defining together a storage space (8). The front portion (14) and the rear portion (12) are attached to each other by a separable attachment device (16). The attachment device (16) is laid out so as to allow separation of said front portion (14) from the rear portion (12) under the effect of an external force greater than a predetermined threshold, so that the front portion (14) or the rear portion (12) is detached from the other portion and penetrates into the storage space (8) under the effect of said external force.
