Once called simply a dashboard, the automotive cockpit has undergone dramatic
change, and its design and engineering continue to increase in complexity.  Even
the term "cockpit" reflects the driver's experience as similar to that of an
airplane pilot, with an array of sophisticated features close at hand to
maximize comfort and control.  Visteon defines the cockpit as a system that
incorporates the physical and functional interfaces of plastic, vehicle
structure, steering, and climate systems, all designed and engineered with a
consumer focuson style, comfort, convenience, and safety and security.

As Visteon's interior product strategy director, Faraj is responsible for the
company's global interior new business development.  This role includes leading
Visteon's global technology, manufacturing strategy and development of strategic
alliances and joint ventures that support Visteon's focus on innovation and
speed-to-market for interior components, modules and integrated systems.

"The cockpit and interiors market continues to evolve as consumers increasingly
want a more functional yet personal space," said Faraj.  "At Visteon, as the
largest cockpit supplier in the world, we are poised to deliver a variety of
features and functions that enhance the driving experience."

The meeting, which is open to SPE members and non-members, will be held at the
Sterling Inn, Sterling Heights, Mich., at 5 p.m.  For more information please
