3D model description

This is a gauge pod that replaces the HVAC vent on the instrument cluster for LHD Subaru SVX. It is for a non syandard size 56mm gauge. There is another file that will fit your standard 52mm gauges.

TIGHT FIT!!!! I designed this as a tight fit on both the car and the gauge. My gauge has no means of securing it so its friction fit against the mount is all that holds it. When installing the printed adapter to the car it will make some pops and creaks as it needs pressed into place and the mounts are designed to be a mm away from the miunt locations to help hold the adapter tight against the dash. This uses the stock mounting locations AND retains the factory clock which conveniently has good enough wiring to tap into to power your gauge. I would expect to have to do some trimming for the gauge to slide in to the adapter, I had to for my own which is no big deal.

3D printing settings

Use supports where it touches the buildplate and print it from PETG, ABS, ASA or the likes because this will get toasty and you wouldn't want your gauge mount to melt after all that hard work putting it in.

I used 4 walls thickness and 40% gyroid infill personally for my final print and it had significant strength over the prototypes with 2 walls and 20% infill.
