Abstract: A method for introducing openings into a decorative material laminated onto a carrier comprises the following steps: providing a fixing device with at least two indicator pins and at least one absorption chamber, providing a carrier with holes for receiving the indicator pins and a decorative material with holes for receiving the indicator pins, pushing the carrier onto the indicator pins and then pushing the decorative material onto the indicator pins. The indicator pins extend through the holes in the carrier and the decorative material and visible parts of the indicator pins protrude above the decorative material, and the decorative material is positioned on the carrier and laminated onto the carrier. Openings are introduced into the decorative material above the openings in the carrier by means of a laser, by detecting the positions of the indicator pins and the heights of the visible parts of the indicator pins.

Abstract: The invention relates to a molded part, in particular a decorative part and/or cladding part that is configured as a molded part for a vehicle interior, comprising a decorative layer having a transparent lacquer layer, a carrier which is disposed on a rear side of the decorative layer, and a light source for illuminating and/or trans-illuminating the lacquer layer. The molded part according to the invention is characterized in that light which emanates from the light source is launched laterally directly and/or indirectly by way of at least one light conductor into the lacquer layer. The invention furthermore relates to a method for producing a molded part, in particular a molded part according to the invention.
