Description

**EDITED**

After receiving feedback on the prongs breaking and difficulty printing on the face, I have added V2 (pictured in white PETG). This includes a less intricate face and added more material to the prongs. I also printed version 2 with .12mm layer height and seams alot more robust.

*****

After breaking numerous automotive trim clips whilst working on my car, I have designed an 8mm trim clip as a replacement.

Save time and money at an auto parts store and print as many as you like, as they a generally a one-use item in the first place.

I printed in PETG, but i believe ASA, or ABS may be the better choice of material in this application.

Measurements as follows (approx.):

- head of clip 20mm (¾") - fixing hole 8mm (5/16) - length of pin 10.5mm (7/16)

Print profiles and steps

8MM TRIM CLIP - V2

8MM TRIM CLIP - V1 processed with standard PETG settings, 0.16 layer height.

I would suggest printing in ASA or ABS due to its intended purpose.

PLA, 50, 60% scale, 0.16mm layer, 3 walls, 15% infill - v2 clip - 1 pair at 50% - 1 pair at 60%

ASA/ABS High Temp Version 5 wall loops, 100% infil

V2 Super Durable Edition - ASA/ABS High Temp 0.12mm layer, 5 walls, 100% infill
