ABSTRACT:
An improved instrument panel includes an airbag cover defined by a tear strip on an inner face of the airbag cover. The outer face of the instrument panel does not include any indication of the tear strip, and thus has a seamless appearance. A hinge is preferably provided to secure the airbag cover to the remainder of the instrument panel when the airbag deploys.
