Abstract

A console for a vehicle interior is disclosed. The console may comprise a base and a storage bin moveable between closed, released, open and intermediate positions. The bin may move from the intermediate position to both the open and closed positions. The bin may move from the intermediate to the closed position without first moving from the intermediate to the open position. The console may comprise a mechanism comprising a pin and a track comprising paths of movement for the pin to guide bin movement from the intermediate to the open and closed positions. The base may comprise a projection and the bin may comprise first and second protrusions or wall segments separated by a gap. The projection may travel through the gap as the bin moves from the intermediate to the open position. The console may comprise an overhead console providing a mirror directed to a rear seat.
