3D Print model, middle row windows, sunblinds hook ?

Unread post by Solarriors »

The hook broke, and a replacement part for this piece of plastic is upwards up of 75£ according to dealer. Overprice for a small piece of plastic, so I was looking for making my own on TinkerCAD but it didn't turn out successful.
I can't reliably find it on 3D models catalogs either.
Does any one know where to find it for 3D printing ?

I would recommend you locate a printer company to ask if they know of printing services or a person that would assist. I am currently three D printing the headlight washer outlet through a retail electronic sales that offer consumer printing service. This is New Zealand 🇳🇿 talking.

Can you measure the broken piece? I have Catia and can save as .ssl files (3d printer files). Send me the dimensions, we may be able to do something - I like to play.😄
I needed the Parking Sensor holders for my C5 and designed and had 5 printed, right first time too!😄

The piece is a bit complex but the only thing that matters is the cylinder that gets into the hole. The rest is just any shape of handle basically freely artistic.
I can take more pictures for reference but in regards to the cylinder it's 3mm diameter and 70mm length.
However it needs to clip inside so I need to figure a way to change the length so I was thinking of putting two cylinders and carrying out a hole in one of them and protruding in the other that they will clip inside and lock when you twist. I had a CAD model

No you can't bump, is that the same as the C8s rear passenger window blockers?
