Builds Benjamin’s 3D Prints Build (4 Viewers)

[jlm43]

Could you do a variation on Make2 LH&RH with a round friction-fit receiver in each for an apple MagSafe inductive charger (or similar off-brand) with the power cable routed behind the dash panel for a clean look? The puck receiver would likely need to sit proud of the panel slightly so you can grip the phone to pull it off.

Something like this?

Magsafe Ball Mount - Etsy

3D printed iPhone 12-14 MagSafe car mount. This was designed to allow you to mount your Apple MagSafe charger to your existing RAM system using a 1” (size B) ball. This mount works best with apple’s MagSafe equipped cases, or with the bare iPhone. **Please Note** The MagSafe and Apple Watch chargers

Yes and no.
Yes for how the MagSafe puck friction-fits in the receiver, but without the ball and arm of the ram mount system. That piece linked looks like it would work as-is with the existing Make2 with the ram mount ball and allow for the adjustability of the ram mount at the expense of overall size and the wire not being concealed. That would be good for some people.

I would like the MagSafe puck receiver in a fixed position, and the material blended to the surface of Make2 in a way that allows the cable to be routed behind the 3D printed panel and be completely hidden.

Question: where/how do you relocate the center diff lock and emergency hazard buttons when using the M2 Left in a LHD vehicle? Or is it intended for RHD vehicles only?

I moved them to the left switch panel. It takes some effort, see details here: CDL Switch moved to panel left of steering wheel

This is a good idea. Can you do some research on cams we can use?

Looks like there is the one popular style like this Pioneer ND-BC8 Universal backup camera at Crutchfield - https://www.crutchfield.com/p_130NDBC8/Pioneer-ND-BC8.html?tp=83 but also these flush mount (bumper?) ones that could be easier to design for Crux CUB-01 Universal bullet backup cam at Crutchfield - https://www.crutchfield.com/p_249CUB01/Crux-CUB-01.html?tp=83 the rest are either license plate mount, massive or other specific application.
Here's a few more from Amazon.ca

• Amazon product ASIN B00WR6ZRV2
• Amazon product ASIN B072561M3V
• Pyle Flush Mount Rear View Camera - Marine Grade Waterproof 1.25'' Cam Built-in Distance Scale Lines Backup Parking/Reverse Assist IR Night Vision LEDs w/ 420 TVL Resolution & RCA Output - PLCM22IR: Amazon.ca: Electronics - https://www.amazon.ca/PLCM22IR-Flush-Mount-Camera-Vision/dp/B000MCKA5Q/

Hey Benjamin, what about a part to replace the 3rd brake light with a backup cam? I need to move mine to my swingout, but I also have a leaking busted third brake light to buy. Maybe even have some red LED there plus a backup cam. I have not looked into what people are using for the cams yet.

+1 for this. Camera plus red and white switch back LEDs would be clutch.

Crux CUB-15
AOSHIKE HD 360-Degree Adjustable Car Camera

I’ve got a rear view mirror dashcam that I’d be interested in integrating with a brake light / camera combo.

I took a look at all the cameras and did search for a robust product. It is going.

This is a picture of a new Scosche product called the MagicMount MSC. If you integrate the black plastic housing highlighted in Red (minus the ball mount) directly into the existing Make2 LH and RH design, then the MagSafe puck (or aftermarket equivalent) can be loaded into it with the wiring hidden in the back.

I like it. I will take a look at the product. Thanks!

Rigid Industries DOT/SAW Fog Light Set (D-Series) - 504813

@BenCC - It looks like the 504813 lights are old. I wonder if the 504814 (3 x3) is a replacement to the '13 lights.

I haven't determined the specs on the '13 yet to determine.

Anyone - please post up if you find any information.

By looking at the picture, they should have the same form factor.

Ya, that's what I'm thinking.

@Trophytruck481 FYI not all Australian RHD LC models are opposite for all parts. My Ashray mount is the opposite of yours, 1999 LC 105 RHD.

Hey Ben,
Will this model fit the first compartment on the longer style roof consoles? Or only the small square ones

Do you mean the roof console on the model that does not have the sunroof?

Yeah, the one that replaces from the front lights and the second seat ones. Like this
