ABSTRACT:
A motor vehicle dashboard has a support face. Air ducts are carried by the dashboard for taking air into the cabin of the vehicle. Each duct has a longitudinal slot which is bounded by two adjacent edges, so that the duct has a transverse cross section in the form of an open annulus. The duct has two external engagement faces on either side of the longitudinal slot, and is fixed to the support face of the dashboard by means of these engagement faces. The duct is made by moulding in a suitable deformable material such that it can be stripped from the mould by opening out the slot, after which the slot is closed up again.
