Items on the inside of a vehicle change appearance in response to ambient atmospheric or imposed conditions. Preferably the colour changes when dyed leather 3 or synthetic material on the items is exposed to changes in temperature, humidity or applied voltage. The item is preferably seat upholstery, door panel, dashboard 2 or steering wheel 11. The thermochromic dyes used allow for temperature dependent revealing of informative or graphic displays. For example, it might allow leather 3, in car interior 1, to change, from a darker colour to a lighter color, thermochromically between 12°C and 13°C.
