1 General Information
1.1 Description
This Section describes the trim panels and garn ishes fitted to the bod y interior as well as the headlining and carpets.
For the trim fitted to the doors and rear compartment lid, refer respectively to
Section 1A5 Front and Rear D oor Assemblies and
Section 1A4 Hood, Rear Compartment Lid, Liftgate and Endgate.
For the instrument panel and console components, refer to Section 1A3 Instrument Panel and Console.
A complete overview of all trim components is covered by this Section, the components are illustrated and identified at
the start of the service operations Section, an illustration is also provided for interior trim clearances specifications.
NOTE
When working on the interior trim, clean hands
are essential and protective covering must be
placed over the interior trim.
For accurate installation and mating of ad jacent components, a locating pin is a feature of some trims, panels and
garnishes. Care must be taken not to damage the locating pin when removing and installing these components.
On some models, the centre pillar upper trim features a front seat belt sash height adjuster cover.
On high level equipment models, the rear window trim panel assembly features radio speaker grilles and two headphone
Jack connectors.
The sunshade features a vanity mirror and on high level equipment models, an illuminated vanity mirror with cover.
The roof console features t wo map lamps, a concealed sunglasses holder and where fitted, a sunroof switch.
The headlining is of the one-p iece mo ulded type with cut-outs as applicable for the fitment of the roof console or the
dome lamp, the sunroof assembly, two illuminated vanity mirrors and two roof mounted radio speakers. The rear of the
headlining is attached to the roof using hook and loop type fasteners.
The following headlining variations are available:
• Level 4 vehicles without or with a sunroof, these vehicles have a roof console fitted near the front of the headlining.
• Level 5 vehicles without or with a sunroof, these vehicles have a roof console fitted near the front of the headlining
and near the rear, two illuminated vanity mirrors and two roof mounted radio speakers.
When a sunroof is fitted, two configurations ma y occur:
• If an online sunroof is fitted, it can be identified by the absence of a rubber trim ring between the sunroof and the
roof panel. A rigid headlining with a cut-out for the fitment of the sunroof is installed and it can be removed using
the normal procedure.
• If a Holden By Design (HBD) sunroof is fitted, it can be identified by the presence of a rubber trim ring between the
sunroof and the roof panel. A new headlinin g is created using pieces of the original headl ining and a new piece of
cloth, the headlining is then installed with adhesive. Removal may damage the headlining and extreme care is
required.
NOTE
If a HBD sunroof is fitted, service procedures are
not covered in this Section and a new headlining
may have to be manufactured by a motor
trimmer.
The front floor carpet assembly features perforatio ns at the front edge to fa cilitate the removal and installation procedur e.
The rear seat back panel carp et features an opening for a ski hatch.
In the rear compartment, the right-hand quarter inner rear side carpet incorporates a power socket in one of two different
locations depending on the model Level of the vehicle:
• Level 4 vehicles, the power socket is supported b y a brack et off the sheetmetal.
• Level 5 vehicles, the power socket is attached to the top of the DVD amplifier.
With Level 5 vehicles, the right-hand qu arter inner rear side carpet has a different shape to allow for the DVD amplifier
that is fitted behind the carpet in the rear right-hand corner o f the rear compartment. The left-hand quarter inner rear side
carpet is the same for all vehicle Levels.
