Hello all 3D print hobbyists! I have found some 3D printed suggestions and options so far on this site, but figured that it would be good to put them together to make these things easier to find and help each other out.

My creations:
A console organizer for things that I typically keep in that huge center console. Basically, created a huge block and removed sections for my wallet, work ID, Leatherman and associated tool bits, flashlight, pens, replacement sunglass lenses, various keys, etc.

Phone holder with integrated Qi charger. This is placed just to the right of the drivers knee and just to the left of the shifter. It is within easy reach and can glance down at it relatively quickly if absolutely necessary.

Pictures:
3111- the iPhone X with life proof case holder with Qi charger incorporated.
3112- the top part of the phone holder showing the upper foot and the high strength sticky backing hook and loop (velcro) attaching it to the car.
3114- the console organizer. Looks a bit cramped, but in my mind, it's better than all that stuff just thrown down in there. Work parking pass is on the side, NPS park pass and XM radio channel guide is way in the back.

Who else has 3D printed parts in their Ascent?!

Very nice! I have been wanting to make a charging stand for my phone too. Thanks for the inspiration!

That console organizer is pretty awesome! Any thoughts of making some sort of shelf for the glovebox?

My pleasure. Getting the feet right was tough and required a bunch of prints, but it finally came together. I only used two feet, one just to the left of the REVERSE setting, and the other at the notch on the trim as it started going more up than horizontal.

I hadn't thought of that. But the glovebox is kinda tight, so I'm not thinking of one right now.

But now that you mention the glove box, since I hardly use the manual, that can probably go in the cargo area to free up more storage that is actually usable.

I like the wireless charger 3d print!

I used a 3D printed insert to install a USB port in an used blank on the panel under the dashboard 'shelf' on the driver's side.

I printed a mount for my Redarc Tow-Pro Elite V3 brake controller knob.

 

[Robert.Mauro]

Nice, @MikeW001! And, you just gave me an idea for a singular little button I need to mount.

Finally got my Tekonsha brake controller mounted. Thought you guys would like to see!

I couldn't find a good place for my controller that wouldn't get in the way. Also, I would use it rarely, so wanted it removable. And, currently, have NO use for it, but know that we may be getting a bigger camper in the future, so wanted it available. Anyway, designed this so it's easily removable, but also in easy reach for when I need it. Also, it is about 3-4 inches to the side of the knee airbag, so that won't get in the way!

The top holder has two screws with nuts that I had to drill through the printed part and into the dash. I had to pull the knee panel down, but it was pretty easy. I used some small sticky foam protection pieces I bought at ACE to place on the top holder to help protect the dash and decrease any noise. It is easily out of the way of my knees when the controller isn't in there.

Also the wire holder part, I used high strength velcro that sticks to the part and to the dash. This holds the wires when not in use.

I can't figure out how to attach STL's, so if anyone wants them, let me know. Took about 5-6 hours to print in total, at 0.2 height and 75mm speed.

I had to print a "cast" for my Tonneau cover when it was destroyed by a shifting load in the back seat. There was a lot of damage to the end part, but I managed to get it together with some cyanoacrylate glue (you can still see some of the fogging on the switch) then epoxied this sleeve over to reinforce all the cracks.

It still functions perfectly well as before and I can access the sliders to disassemble it completely although it is a bit less monochromatic after the repair. These things are definitely not built well enough to serve as load bars.

How did you wire it up if you don't mind me asking?

While not technically applicable to anyone with a Subaru, anyone with Black Rhino's "Stadium" wheels, could use this flat cap I designed to eliminate the raised center cap the wheel comes with.

OMG, PLEASE tell me how much you'd charge me for five of them to fit my Liquid Metal Shadows. I can get you the diameter, if you could. I bought an amazing set of overlays from Orsini Vinyl, but, my center caps have recessed lettering that I am sure will cause issues at some point in the future.

Hey, for what it's worth I'm not selling anything. The 3D files on the Prusa site are free to download and free to print. I'm not a vendor, just a guy with CAD and a 3D printer.

If y'all want to delete the link to the files that's your perogative. It's just going to make it less useful to others.

I think you misunderstood. I love that you shared the links to the files. Please, leave them. I don't have a printer, so, I am offering to at least pay for materials, or even a little something towards time, if you'd be willing to make me a set. And, totally understand if you aren't interested.

Either way, glad you shared the files for the community. I love when others share their innovations - makes the forum a better place!

One of the other Moderators removed them. Otherwise they'd still be there.

My mistake, Alpha'...I didn't click on the link and it looked commercial which we understandably have to be careful about. No worries! Robert fixed you up!
