Hidden Surface Front Seat Back Panel

Goals of this high-volume program were to enable thinner seat styling by reducing visual mass and volume of front seat back, permit trim to side airbag (SAB) interface, eliminating dependence of trim cover material to airbag deployment, allow mid-cycle changes to trim materials without having to retest airbag system, and facilitate assembly of airbag to seat. This was accomplished with an injection-molded neat PP substrate and SAB pocket that were vibration welded to allow the airbag to be mounted externally to the trim cover, and the trim cover to be attached to the back panel.
