# trailingImage

The configuration’s image.

```
var trailingImage: UIImage? { get }
```

## Discussion

Configurations are immutable. To change or remove the image that the message list item’s trailing region shows, create a new configuration and update the list item’s [`trailingConfiguration`](/documentation/CarPlay/CPMessageListItem/trailingConfiguration) property.

A configuration’s image can’t be larger than [`CPMaximumMessageItemImageSize`](/documentation/CarPlay/CPMaximumMessageItemImageSize). If you use an animated image, this property returns the first image in the animation sequence.
