#3DPrints : OEM Spec Radio Delete, Two Tone Print (1 Viewer)

[zerotreedelta]

I've been working on learning CAD a bit better, so took a bit of time to faithfully recreate my OEM radio delete plate, including the clips and the two-tone scheme. I started by scanning in the face to digitize the OEM designs, and converted it to a vector graphic that works with CAD. From there, I used the scan and modeled up the thickness and clips:

The factory plate has a silver paint for the raised portion, so set it up for a two-tone print, turned out pretty good. I do need to tweak the printing for the second try, as the rendering tweaked the crosshatching a bit, but I can tune that out - you can see the better texture in the photo of the one without clips. It's not the factory marbling, but it's a decent alternative:

Snaps in to the factory hole like the original - clips hold it snug:

Likewise, if there's interest, I can rip out a few as needed...can move a thread to the Classifieds for it most likely.

And also...I have no need for this one, so if anyone wants a freebie (with the minor anomalies in the crosshatching), just shoot me a DM, guessing shipping should be cheap on it. Better photo of the crosshatch quirks in prototype:

I would love to have it.

How about a 3D printed dome light?

Early Dome Light

Does anyone have a source either OEM or aftermarket for the early 40 Series dome light lens? Thanks

Im trying to find someone to print up one of these. Free file on City Racers website.

Funny, I made the dome light from scratch as well...was going to post it to a separate thread. I'll see how my model compares...definitely nice to have a list of parts available. I thought about a master thread, but I think a tag is likely more useful (like #3DPrints).

EDIT: ahhh...early vs late. I modeled up the late (rounded) one. Looks like his site is down currently, will check back though.

I would like to order a radio plate if you can make one!

 

[gmr76]

I will order one if available!

 

[macdaddy59]

I too would order a radio delete plate.

I started a thread over in Classifieds/Parts - figured this thread was more the tech/how, and that thread was more for those that wanted one printed up:

For Sale - 3DPrinted : OEM Spec Radio Plate, Two Tone Print

Posting to avoid cluttering the main boards...guessing pretty low volume/demand, but happy to print as needed - asking $25 shipped to help cover time/materials/shipping. Scanned duplicate of the factory plate, other than the background is crosshatch vs marbled. Uses the factory sized clips...

They take about a day to print - I've got three in the queue, but the first is wrapping up soon for @74GreenFJ . Just shoot me a DM if you're interested and it'll get in the queue.

I would like to order one from you. Much appreciated.

Here’s the dome light that zerotreedelta printed for me. Works great!

 

[macdaddy59]

I also need a dome light. How do I get one?

 

[FJ40Savvy]

Nice Job. I would take one if you are willing to ship to Canada. Also, I have an original radio with no escutcheon. I was thinking that 3D printing one would be a good alternative. Unfortunately my 3D printer is too small. Any change you would consider 3D printing an escutcheon? I think this is one I need.

 

[HAMBURGLAR11]

Just received mine. Wow great work!!!! Thank you for producing these. Cheers

 

[FJ40Savvy]

Just received mine. Fits great . Thanks for making these

 

[newmexicokid]

How about ash tray delete plate?

 

[Engineer8000]

Also interested in the radio escutcheon. I can loan you one to scan if you like.
