an inner panel, provided with an upper portion in which a first opening is formed and a lower portion in which a second opening is formed, wherein the first opening is adapted to accommodate a window; and
an outer skin, at least partially made of plastic, mounted on the inner panel, having an inner surface facing an outer surface of the inner panel, wherein the inner panel and the outer skin are bonded to define a delimited internal volume,
characterized in that it further comprises an equipment supporting plate covered by the outer skin and mounted directly on the outer surface of the inner panel, wherein said equipment supporting plate is disposed inside the delimited internal volume after the inner panel and the outer skin have been bonded, and wherein the delimited internal volume is delimited, on the one hand, by the outer surface of the inner panel and, on the other hand, by the inner surface of the outer skin.
2 . The motor vehicle opening panel according to claim 1 , wherein the equipment supporting plate comprises an electromagnetic radiation emitting and/or receiving device and the outer skin comprises, facing the electromagnetic radiation emitting and/or receiving device, at least one transmission zone, made of a plastic material, which is at least partially transparent to an electromagnetic radiation.
3 . The motor vehicle opening panel according to claim 2 , wherein the electromagnetic radiation belongs to a visible spectrum.
4 . The motor vehicle opening panel according to claim 2 , wherein the electromagnetic radiation belongs to a non-visible spectrum.
5 . The motor vehicle opening panel according to claim 1 , wherein the supporting plate further comprises an attachment interface for attaching said supporting plate within the internal volume of the opening panel, said interface being configured in such a way that the supporting plate is removable.
6 . The motor vehicle opening panel according to claim 1 , wherein the supporting plate comprises at least one access port to one of items of equipment borne by the supporting plate.
7 . The motor vehicle opening panel according to claim 1 , wherein the inner panel comprises at least one access opening to the delimited internal volume.
8 . The motor vehicle opening panel according to claim 7 , wherein the inner panel further comprises at least one removable hatch that is adapted to close the at least one access opening.
9 . The motor vehicle opening panel according to claim 1 , further comprising a trim element attached to an internal wall of the inner panel and covering the second opening.
10 . The motor vehicle opening panel according to claim 9 , wherein the trim element covers at least one removable hatch of the inner panel.
11 . The motor vehicle opening panel according to claim 1 , further comprising a technical panel mounted on the inner panel and bearing a set of technical elements for a routing or an attachment of components, wherein the technical panel bears at least one of the following elements:
holes for routing elements, wherein the routing elements are at least one of: wires, linkages, pipes, attachment interfaces, and connectors;
attachment interfaces for systems, wherein the systems are any one of: a motorized lock and a windshield washer motor; and
shapes for mechanical reinforcement, wherein the mechanical reinforcement is any one of: ribs and bosses.
