Do we have a good 3D printer in the mud community for small custom jobs? I’d like to make a few custom knobs that look similar to the early LIGHT, ROOM, and WIPER switches. Particularly for a fog and heater switch. If there’s anybody out there that would be interested in taking this project on please PM me. I know there was a guy doing this on Facebook a while back but his project fizzled and he hasn’t responded to messages, but i thought it was a pretty cool idea. I can probably find a 3D printing place locally but this seems like a job for a mudder, if possible...

Thanks!

I thought @Krondor was doing this at one time.
I believe he's just molding knobs rather than 3D printing so he wouldn't be able to make something custom. Just re-create it.

I did ask him about this as a potential project not very long ago though and he's pretty busy.
 
where the heck is MY Greek friend ? :D

@thecrazygreek

this is your time brother greek .........
 
I can do that...
Big style like the LIGHT knob
Small style like the WIPER knob.
35 each
Add 10 for custom mounting needs.

Woah wait, you’re already making them??? That’s literally exactly what I’m looking for!

what’s on the back, is it a threaded insert or just a hole like the OEM ones (or is that customizable)?
I can go OEM threaded insert, or if you have an aftermarket switch, I can customize it.
This is a hobby at this point for me. Just doing it for fun.
I can recreate just about anything.. ;)

Is that a 3D printed Vader hood too? Super cool!
Yep...

They don't mount the same at all though.
Only for the look of OEM.

I designed them to mount with a 6mm hole. They use an LED bulb and you have to figure out your own wiring and switch.
I can get a switch that looks very close to factory though.

@thecrazygreek

Hello. Can you make 2 pieces of the lamp heads? Problem is I dont have one in stock for the 3D print and not sure if anyone will lend us one so we can print a few from it. Would you have any in stock? Please let me know

Great Work, keep it up..

Thank you.
