ABSTRACT:
A vehicle door includes an outer panel and an inner panel attached together and defining a space for mounting the window and window regulator. A door trim assembly mounted on the inner panel includes an energy absorbing member, preferably of plastic or other foam matrial, and a trim panel which overlies the energy absorbing member and provides a decorative surface. An arm rest is mounted to project inboard from the trim panel and overlies a cavity provided in the door trim assembly. The arm rest is mounted on the door trim assembly by a yieldable mount which yields upon imposition of a predetermined level of force against the arm rest by the seated occupant whereby the arm rest is collapsed into the cavity and assumes a substantially flush relationship with the door trim assembly.
