Fixing your old car: Rear mirror support for Peugeot 205

thingiverse

If you have a Peugeot 205, this thing is for you! If not, then this may convince you that 3D printing can also improve your safety :-) I own an old car, and many plastic parts are failing all over the place. Recently, the support of my rear-mirror broke. I initially glued it but it kept falling while I was driving ... not so nice. The faulty piece is a plastic part which connects a metallic support glued on the windshield to the metallic tube of the rear mirror. I took my favorite modeler (IceSL), a digital Caliper, printed ... and voila, my car feels safer. Instructions Download, print, replace, drive safe. The IceSL script is included, as well as the csg script for OpenSCAD and the STL file. Obviously this should be considered as a toy and you should get your rear mirror support repaired with an official piece. Use at your own risk.
