    3d printed Scangauge II mount

    Yesterday I started cleaning my car up for the Midwest Mitsubishi Mirage Meet that is coming up this weekend. I hadn't really dedicated any time at all to this since purchasing the car in December. So, one of the things I decided to do was finally make a mount for my scangauge. Previously, it was just chilling on the dash cluster. It totally blocked the car's MFD which I never liked. I would always have to move it to see how much gas I had in the tank. Once, I moved it for the first time in weeks to find the last little bar blinking away trying to get my attention haha. Good thing I checked!

    Anyway, this is what I came up with.

    I printed it out really fast and not in good quality. As a prototype you never know exactly how it'll fit, and it isn't uncommon to adjust the fit and print again. Thankfully, it seems to work great. It has a firm hold and tight fit on the instrument cluster bezel, and a firm grip on the scangauge as well.

    Here is the new view from where I sit. The MFD is now fully visible again.

    That looks pretty cool!

    I have mine installed in the speedometer bezel...but for those who aren't in the mood to cut a dash piece, your mount is a quick/easy alternative!
