ABSTRACT:
A rupturable cover for a vehicle air bag compartment which includes two door sections connected by a rupturable membrane. Each door section includes a generally S-shaped hinge which allows the sections to pivot outwardly from each other when the rupturable membrane is ruptured to allow the exodus of the air bag. The cover may be mounted on an air bag module or on the dashboard of the vehicle by screws or heat staking.
