Abstract: A shelf or tray for a vehicle which may be an interior trim component of the vehicle is disclosed. The tray includes a wall element and a holding element. The wall element includes a first section and a second section. The first section is at least partially mounted in a first guide device of the holding element. The first section can be latched in a defined manner within the guide device by means of at least one latching element and, by a movement of the first section and/or the second section, thus ensuring a defined opening or closing of the shelf or tray due to the latching of the latching element.
