A vehicle includes a surface component which has a panel-like surface element which has an outer side facing the vehicle surroundings and an inner side facing the interior of the vehicle and on which a peripheral edge foaming is formed which is applied against a peripheral edge surface and against the inner side of the surface element in its edge region. At the edge foaming, a cable duct is shaped which is designed as open on its side along its extent. Alternatively, foamed into the edge foaming is a tube which forms a cable duct and which extends on the inner side of the surface element at least largely parallel to an edge surface portion of the surface element.

A mold is configured to form a polymeric article. The mold includes a first mold portion and a second mold portion. The polymeric article formed by the mold includes regions having varying densities. A method includes forming a cellular polymeric article having regions of varying densities between the first mold portion and the second mold portion.

Molds and method of using the molds to produce a product are provided. The molds include a first mold piece having a first wall with a first column member protruding therefrom that includes first sidewalls and a first distal end, and a second mold piece having a second wall with a second column member protruding therefrom that includes second sidewalls and a second distal end. The first and second mold pieces are configured to releasably mate to define a mold cavity therebetween and such that the first and second column members releasably mate with the first distal end being received within a cavity of the second distal end to form a seal therebetween. The mold cavity is configured to receive a product material therein and form the product therefrom. The first sidewalls and the second sidewalls are configured to define a pass through in the product.
