Accesories to 3D print for your car
Some times you see your 3D printer in a corner of your house, and you decide you would like to 3D print something. At this moment you realize you have the Maker Block: you have no ideas and you spend hours on Thingiverse searching for something to print. Because of that, we decided to suggest 4 objects you must print for your car.
Premise
We suppose that those objects will go in a car also in summer. We all know that in summer inside a closed car temperature can get very high and plastic would deform under this heat.
So we must choose the correct material, avoiding PLA and ABS preferring PETG.
Plastic bag holder
The first object I suggest you print it’s very useful when you do shopping or you have some bags you don’t want to leave on the car mat.
These two hooks cling at the two headrest bars of the front seat and you can hang there the bag.
Obviously it must be strong, so I suggest you to use an infill of at least 70%. You can find them here.
Sunglasses holder
Sunglasses are always useful, if not necessary when you drive.
This fantastic 3D printed tool will allow you to hang them on the sun visor to always reach them easily. You just attach the clip to the sun visor and insert the sunglasses.

Phone holder
Using your phone driving is forbidden by the law, but in certain cases, we really can’t do without it. So here is a tool to hang your phone on your car’s dashboard and utilize apps such as the navigator or the music player without many distractions.
This support is universal, which means it can be used whit any smartphone. But with a quick search on Thingiverse, you can find one specifically for your smartphone. It isn’t an easy print, but if you set up your slicer correctly you won’t have problems.

Emergency glass breaker
Here is a tool we hope you’ll never use. This useful item will help you in the case of an accidence for cutting your security belts and get the passengers free.
You can find it here, but it would be better to purchase a good quality one like this.
