Abstract

An assembly carrier of a vehicle door has at least one break-out element, which is connected to the material of the assembly carrier via at least one peripheral weakened region. The weakened region has a lower material thickness than the remainder of the assembly carrier material. The weakened region acts as a predetermined breaking point and forms a periphery of a service opening. The weakened region is arranged in a ring all around the break-out element. The break-out element is jointly formed with the assembly carrier in a common injection mold.
