Kenwood TH-D74A holder for 2017 Expedition

thingiverse

I was tired of my radio sitting the cup holder on my way to work and I didn't have my mobile installed yet, so I made a cradle for my HT that would allow a charger cable and antenna wire to come out from the dash when in use. There was an essentially useless cubby in the dash that was a strange shape, so I pulled it out and designed this print to go into it. I print with Cura std supports, but minimal supports are needed depending on the orientation of the print. I find the strength to stay attached to the dash is maximized if it is printed with the radio base touching the print bed. I have always printed in ABS because I live in AZ and the heat in the car can be hard on PLA, causing warping. Comments and feedback are hoped for. Mikey-
