An automotive panel includes a first layer having a fibrous portion. The first layer additionally includes an electrically conductive thread sewn into the fibrous portion. The sewn electrically conductive thread forms a circuit configured to deliver current from a power source. A second layer overlaps the first layer. At least one of the conductive thread or the fibrous portion includes materials having suitable properties to allow for die cutting or thermoforming the automotive panel without damaging the fibrous portion or disrupting the continuity of the circuit formed by the conductive thread.
