The present invention relates to an automotive trim device and a process for making the same. The automotive trim device comprises a foam body with a cavity, into which a mechanism comprising both functionality-conferring elements and a frame element can be inserted. The foam body is manufactured from liquid foam and uses tooling for the inner core. After the foam body has formed, the tooling is removed and the mechanism can be inserted into the foam body, thereby preventing the mechanism from being exposed to liquid foam. An advantage of the present invention is that the automotive trim device can be used with electrical and/or mechanical devices containing components sensitive to the intrusion and curing of liquid foamable materials. The process may also provide mass and cost savings due to reductions in scrap and material, as compared to other known methods of manufacture.
