Door-Mirror Adjustment Pin

The mirror adjuster on my E39 stopped moving the mirror in left-right direction, however I could still hear the small motor working. After removing the mirror plate, I found a small plastic component broken. Of course you can't buy this part, only the whole assembly (the one where I marked the pins with red arrows) for 100 USD :). Based on the broken component, I copied the part and printed it. It works perfectly!! Please note that if you need this for up-down motion, you will need to mirror the part before printing.

Trunk-Lid Travel BufferC3D–01375

Trunk-Lid Travel Buffer

This is the buffer that the arm on the boot/trunk hits to stop it opening too far, if it cracks (which it will) then ultimately it tries to bend the gas struts. Photo shows a broken one and the print. This is for the RHS looking at the rear of the vehicle. The LHS is identical but mirror image. Print this so it stands on the long edge (hole and pin are horizontal) or the the arm will seperate the layers, there is a lot of force there. I used PETG at 100% infill.

My BMW E39 was missing some fan grille parts for the rear seats. The CAD drawings have the exact same size as the original parts. So it just depends on how accurate your printer is (I had to sand down some areas). As you can see in the pictures you will also need a small piece of sheet metal that acts as a spring.

Floor-Mat Retaining Fastener

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.

Rear Cup-Holder Blanking Plate

Very basic blanking plate for the E39 BMW 5 Series rear cup holder. The rear cup holder in my E39 BMW has never closed properly and never clipped in properly and EVERY time someone sits in the rear seat it gets kicked. Odd design by BMW as the cup holder keeps the rear air vents in place so when the cup holder falls out so does the air vent. Printed in blue for prototyping! Second design with holes for 2 USB chargers or cigarette lighter sockets. I used the ones with rubber covers from banggood. The clips are very crude. They need a better design as this panel does not like being removed. Verify dimensions against the original part and confirm full operation before regular use.

Headlamp Adjuster PairC3D–01355
BMWExterior lighting, cameras & sensors

Headlamp Adjuster Pair

These headlamp adjusters are for the BMW E39 series (5-series from 1996 onwards). The originals are made of some material that gets super brittle with age, and pretty much self destruct. Thus making the headlamps aim far too low, and wobble when driving over the slightest dump. BMWs own solution is to supply new lamps as complete units, price probably approaching $1000. To fix, you need to take the headlamp units apart, which is actually quite easy. There are various instructions on the net, The two manual adjusters simply fully unscrew to release. The third adjuster, connected to a motor, is released by turning the exposed 5mm plastic nut 90 degrees (not all variants have this feature). One word of warning: Do not touch the reflectors, they are very easily destroyed by attempts of cleaning. You need one of each of these per side. They will work for the early halogen units, but may need modification for "angel eyes", and I have no idea about Xenon. Note also that the shape is different from the originals. I believe these may be slightly better - the originals were limited by what you could do with casting. For best strength you should ideally print them laying down, but then some s Verify dimensions against the original part and confirm full operation before regular use.

Ashtray-Delete Storage Cubby

This part is a small storage cubby for use in place of the broken center console ash tray for BMW E39. The bottom clip of the ash tray holder is commonly broken on E39 models and cannot be fixed without replacing with a working center console trim piece, which can be hard to find in good condition. The part includes a cutout for the illumination strip so the cubby is illuminated at night. Fitment is very tight to avoid the use of adhesives. Carefully press in with a bit of force and it will fit as shown in the photos. Verify dimensions against the original part and confirm full operation before regular use.

Trunk-Floor Twist Lock

Replacement for BMW OEM part 51478230749 (Support for Tension Strap). Used to secure the trunk floor panel in BMW E39 E36 models. Printing recommendation: For maximum strength, print the part at a 45° angle using supports. This print orientation improves layer adhesion in the areas subjected to the highest load, resulting in a stronger and more durable part. BMW catalog lists support 51478230749 from 1996-09 and records bilateral interchangeability with superseded 51478197822; retain the creator-listed E36/E39 fitment.

Gladen Alpha 130 G2 Tweeter Mount Pair

I designed these brackets because the original BMW E39 tweeter mounts are too small to fit the Gladen Alpha 130 G2 tweeters. Installing aftermarket tweeters in the factory location can be challenging, as the available space inside the original E39 mounting brackets is very limited. These adapters allow the Gladen tweeters to be mounted securely while retaining the factory installation position.

Tested with Gladen Alpha 130 G2 tweeters. PETG or ASA is recommended for improved heat resistance inside the vehicle. Print with at least 3 perimeters and 30–40% infill for good durability.

Replaces the integrated plastic tab that commonly shears off, allowing the fog light to be secured without replacing the entire bumper. The bracket replicates the factory slot geometry. Once bonded, the fog light housing slides into the bracket and locks into place using the original mounting hardware/method. Material: Would recommend ASA or ABS. Compatibility: 2001–2004 (Facelift / LCI) BMW E39 5-Series models. Will not fit Pre-Facelift or M-Sport/M5 Bumpers. I also sell the printed parts: Installation Instructions: 1. Access: Gain access to the fog light assembly either by removing the front splash guard in the wheel well or by removing the front bumper entirely. 2. Alignment: Leave the fog light attached to the bumper by its remaining intact mounting point. 3. Test Fit: Position the repair bracket and verify that it makes flush contact with the bumper surface. Ensure the circular tab on the fog light housing slots correctly into the bracket. 4. Preparation: If remnants of the broken original bracket interfere with the fitment, trim them down until the repair bracket sits flush. 5.
