BMW Sun Visor Socket Hinge

prusaprinters

<p>BMW Sun Visor Socket. The original plastic part broke where it grips the sun visor. When I looked, BMW only sells the entire visor + the socket, and not the plastic part by itself.</p><p>Printed in PETG. Previous iterations of my model worked OK with PLA, but the parts deformed in the heat of the car. The PLA parts were also brittle, and I frequently broke the snapping mechanism when trying to install the sun visor. You may get acceptable results in PLA, just be careful not to overshoot the notch when inserting the sun visor.</p><p>This is missing that extra plastic wall that didn't have any clear purpose on the original part. Also, the hinge has much lower friction when compared to the original, so the visor will swing around if not clipped into the opposite hinge.&nbsp;</p><p>This work is dual-licensed: MIT &amp; Creative Commons Public Domain, choose either license.
