A smart functional vehicle component includes a vehicle component, a leather sheet fixed over a surface of the vehicle component, a flexible electronic circuit contacting an A-surface of the leather sheet and including a printed and cured conductive ink, and a pigmented coating arranged over the electronic circuit. The circuit includes a wireless transmitter, which is configured to generate an oscillating electromagnetic field when an associated portable electronic device is within a predetermined distance from the wireless transmitter. The circuit may also include an electronic element such as a light source, a sensor, or a switch. When the circuit includes a light source, the pigmented coating inhibits or prevents the circuit and the light source from being visible through the pigmented coating, but light emitted by the light source is visible through the pigmented coating.

An instrument panel and instrument cluster electrical and data interconnection are provided. An instrument panel is adapted to receive an instrument cluster, and the instrument panel includes a first transceiver arranged to provide a wireless electric power signal. The instrument cluster is adapted to be disposed within the instrument panel, and includes a second transceiver wirelessly coupled to the first transceiver to receive the wireless electric power signal. The second transceiver is further coupled to an instrument within the instrument cluster to provide energizing electric power to the instrument responsive to the wireless electric power signal.
