Abstract: A floor mat hanger (10) includes a hanger body (12) having a hanger aperture (20) for receiving a support member, and a hook member (14) selectively attachable to the hanger body (12) through the hanger aperture (20). The hook member (14) is selectively movable to and between a first configuration, wherein the hook portion (22) is spaced from the hanger body (12) to facilitate hanging the hanger body (12) from an external support structure, and a second configuration wherein the hook portion (22) is positioned adjacent the hanger body (12) in a compact arrangement. The floor mat hanger (10) may further include at least one post (16) configured to support a floor mat thereon, and locking structure (18) associated with the at least one post (16) to prevent a floor mat from being removed from the post (16).

Abstract: A trim panel for a vehicle interior provides a distinctive ambient lighting effect. The trim panel has an opening therein and an illuminated insert panel is mounted on the trim panel within the opening. The insert panel is molded of a clear plastic material and has a front face located in the opening and a painted or other rear reflective surface. The insert panel has a clear plastic edge wall located beyond the opening of the trim panel. A light pipe extends alongside the clear plastic edge wall and directs light into the clear plastic edge wall so that the light reflects within the clear plastic material and onto the rear reflective surface of the insert panel to illuminate the insert panel over its entire surface area facing through the opening of the interior trim panel.
