This is a custom USB holder designed to replace the button blanking strip on a BMW E46 dashboard – the one next to the ASC/DSC button. It’s a remix of another model, but with serious upgrades: ✅ Now with 3 Holes : I added a third port so you can mount a standard car charger PCB . Just remove the plastic casing and drop in the board. Works perfectly with generic AliExpress/Amazon 12V USB chargers. 🔩 Rear Clamp with M3 Bolts : The back has a clamp system for a solid hold using M3 bolts and heat-set inserts (not required, but highly recommended). 📐 Includes STEP File : I reverse-engineered the original STL in Fusion 360 and included a clean STEP file for anyone who wants to customize it further Use cabin-heat-resistant material, dry-fit the part and confirm secure retention and unobstructed operation.

Clip-on cargo hook for the rear load-area rail, physically shown installed and documented by the creator as used reliably for more than a year. The creator directly lists X3 E83, 3 Series E46, X5 E53 and 5 Series E39 compatibility, so all four live generations are linked. This is an accessory rather than a reproduction of a BMW service part. Print in PETG as documented, observe sensible load limits, and confirm it cannot obstruct the rear seat or cargo cover.

Update: Few of those broke using PLA 0.8 width, infill 10-25%. I suggest you print with 3 layers width (or more?). I will do a redesign to fix the weak point from printing prescriptive. This is my design for BMW floor mat holder (E36 E46 E38 E39) . Top part fits nice and works like a charm. I would say it even holds better than original one. As for the washer (bottom one) I haven't got it in real life so I've designed whatever I thought was suitable. Tested with PLA. Lay it down to print upside down. For now tests are held only in V1 version. Version 1: - Design created. Printed with CURA supports Version 2: - Added supports included in file. Gap is 0.15mm - Redesign of top part "head" - Added washer BMW part number (exemplary) 51478116564 51478183027 51478183028 51478183029 51471881521 Only the creator-tested V1 fastener is retained; the untested V2 washer and supported variant are excluded. Verify dimensions against the original part and confirm full operation before regular use.

Replacement oil-sump drain-plug access cover for E46 and Z4 E85/E86 undertrays. The creator corrected the screw-hole location and removed reinforcement that caused the physical print to warp.

E46 4" Speaker Adapter for Coupe/M3 This adapter screws directly into the original speaker pod. The threads are slightly loose, allowing space for Teflon tape. I applied Teflon tape to ensure a secure fit and prevent the speaker from vibrating loose over time. The speaker is fastened with M4 screws, with a little dab of loctite on them. Dry-fit before fastening and verify glass, latch, wiring and trim clearance through full operation.

Cut off the remains of the rubber part on your windshield cowl and attach these printed ones. OEM PART: 51718208483 Mirror the end part to use it on the other side. Print multiple mid parts to cover the entire length. Printed from Fillamentum Flexfill 89A. Using 0.15mm layer height is important as there is a steep overhang on the part, which wouldn't print well using thicker layers. The end part might not fit perfectly but it did the job already so I didn't tweak it anymore. Use heat-, UV- and fluid-resistant material and verify full wiper or washer clearance.

This is a remixed version of the original thing posted here on Thingiverse, which is a shift boot bracket for the BMW E46 3 Series. It has better strength as with the added fillets and the clips are thickened as well as enlarged for better fitment. It will fit both RHD and LHD BMW E46 and will provide tight fitment. If you are planning to install with thick Alcantara leather boot, then it will be wise to scale it down a bit to 96-97% scale but if you are just planning to use faux leather boot, then at 100% scale it will be just fine. Use custom support blockers to increase the infill density of the clips to 99% for added strength. Print it in ABS or PETG because PLA will definitely deform du Use cabin-heat-resistant material, dry-fit the part and confirm secure retention and unobstructed operation.

We did 6 different version to get it in the angle that it faces the driver. We had a tight fit so it did not need any mounting to the dash, but maybe some glue or other adhesive wouldn't hurt. Printed flat down on the surface, with ABS+ to resist the summer heat in the car. Use cabin-heat-resistant material, dry-fit the part and confirm secure retention and unobstructed operation.

Repair bushing for the E46 and E53 window regulator, physically assembled and load-tested by the creator with an M6 thread. The creator warns that ordinary PLA failed in summer heat.

Service wrench for the notched BMW fuel-tank screw cap used on E46, E60/E61, E63/E64, E65–E68, E83 and E53 vehicles. The creator tested the same interface on an R53 MINI and identified BMW screw cap 16116762417; BMW catalog cross-reference independently confirms that cap across the listed BMW chassis. The printed wrench is not the screw cap itself, so no OEM number is assigned. Use a stiff engineering polymer, hand tools only, and replace rather than reuse any visibly damaged print.
