ABSTRACT:
An arm rest support (20) has a mounting plate section (22) mounted onto a inner door panel (12) of a motor vehicle door (10). The mounting plate section (22) has a thickened bar section (30) which has a plurality of ribs (32) upwardly extending and inwardly extending therefrom. Each rib (32) is angularly displaced with respect to the other ribs. A top plate (40) is seated onto the distal ends (36) of the ribs and connected to a flange (52) of the mounting plate section (22). A door trim panel (18) incorporating an arm rest section (19) is mounted onto the door inner panel (12). The arm rest section (19) is shaped to form a cavity (68) to receive the support (20) and top plate (40). The support (20) and top plate (40) in the arm rest section (19) resist against downwardly directed forces while permitting collapse of the arm rest section in the outboard direction.
