Garmin BC 30 Camera Tag Mount for 2015 Jetta

thingiverse

I finally got a backup camera for a Garmin GPS since my car doesn't have one. I didn't like the stamped metal mount it came with and didn't want to cut or drill any holes, so drew up this mount that attaches to the tag underframe and then gets more or less locked in when the tag gets mounted to the underframe. The mount has a channel to align with the underframe and a mounting hole to lock it in place. There's also a notch for the camera cable. The mount provides a little protection for the camera as well. I doubt many are installing Garmin backup cameras on 2015 Jetta's but if you are, I hope this is useful. I'd bet the channel fits other VW and VW Group automobiles, though. It does have a 20 degree downward angle to the camera mount section since on my car the rear panel the tag mounts to would otherwise angle the camera up slightly. I printed it with four shells just to give it some strength since it may get bumped and will be exposed to the elements. Only 25% infill though and it does need support to keep the tag underframe channel clear if you print base down.
