ABSTRACT:
A padded panel for a vehicle dashboard, console box or the like has an opening for mounting a desired article, such as an instrument, a switch, etc. The panel includes a base plate which is formed with a closed loop groove. A portion of a surface layer, which covers the base plate, is adhered to the surface of the groove to define a completely closed space therebetween. Foamable material is injected into the closed space and caused to foam and harden to form the pad. After completion of hardening of the pad, the base plate and the surface layer are cut along the inner periphery of the groove to form the opening. The bottom surface of the groove affords a seat to accurately position and positively mount the desired article.
