Zusammenfassung:	A method of making an interior panel of a vehicle door having an exterior surface which is to face toward the interior of the vehicle when installed therein. The method includes the steps of heating a laminate sheet comprising 1) an outer layer of vinyl sheet (40) and 2) a layer of relatively soft foamed material (42) bonded thereto and vacuum forming the heated laminate sheet in a vacuum mold component oriented so that an ami rest portion of the laminate sheet is the vinyl shee t surface thereof engaged with the mold surface ami rest portion. Next, a preformed pad (46) of foamed elastomeric material having a density i n the range of 30 to 45 pounds per cubic foot is mounted on the opposite surface of the arm rest portion of the heated laminate sheet . Thereafter a foamable polyurethane material (48) embedded within a reinforcing mat is heated and cured while all of the mold component s to form a panel which includes 1) a substrate defining the opposite surface thereof, 2) an upwardly facing arm rest portion defined on its exterior surface by the vinyl sheet and backed up therebelow by the lays of relatively soft foamed material and die pad of foamed elastomeric material.
