Abstract:
A functional vehicle component and related methods include a functional leather assembly fixed over a vehicle component. The functional leather assembly includes a leather sheet, a flexible electronic circuit arranged on a first surface of the leather sheet that faces away from the vehicle component to thereby define an outermost surface of the leather sheet, and including a piezoelectric switch that can be actuated to make or break a conductive path in the circuit; and a pigmented coating arranged over the circuit. Upon actuation of the piezoelectric switch to make or break the conductive path in the circuit, the piezoelectric switch provides a haptic signal that indicates the actuation of the piezoelectric switch.

Claim (Index 6):
The method according to  claim 5 , further comprising:\n providing a light source that emits light when electrical power is supplied to the light source, and electrically connecting the light source to the circuit, wherein the pigmented coating is arranged over the light source, wherein light emitted by the light source is visible through the pigmented coating, wherein the light source comprises a micro light emitting diode, and wherein the light source is configured to emit light that indicates a location of the piezoelectric switch.
