Abstract

The present invention relates to an arrangement for panels in vehicles, comprising an outer cover layer (1), an inner carrier (2) and an intermediate layer (3) of a highly heat-reflecting material. The heat-reflecting layer (3) extends continuously, on the one hand with a part in close connection to an area of the cover layer which at least during certain time periods is exposed to heat radiation and accordingly is given an increased temperature, and on the other hand with at least one additional part over an area which has a lower temperature. In this manner, the increased temperature is limited through reflection and through dissipation of heat from the area with the increased temperature.
