Application and fitment for Mini

Construction, function, and utility values

The door trim serves both a protective and aesthetic function, masking the internal structure of the door and guiding the user through ergonomically arranged control zones. The panel construction is prepared to work with factory handles, control elements, and mounts, allowing for installation without structural modifications.
