3D printed Holden VL sunglasses holder for sale. The complete kit is printed in ASA (similar to ABS but UV resistant); and comes with both the standard fascia and the triple gauge fascia. The triple fascia fits three 52mm gauges. The kit also contains two 52mm plugs if you don't need all three gauge holes. The Holden logo plug is in two pieces to make painting easier and will need to be glued together with CA glue. There is a 3d printed jig included as the logo is slightly larger to hide the seem. To remove the need to drill holes in the holder to run the cables to the gauges there are 3x10mm holes and the kit includes plugs to fill the hole if not required. The kits is all raw black ASA you will need to prime and paint the pieces.
If you would like a gauge bezel that only has one or two holes I can print that bezel for you just message or email me after purchase with the number of 52mm holes and their location (left, middle and right). Also I can print a solid bezel that you can drill to install switches or other components.
I made this sunglasses holder for my own project car and thought others may like one for their executive or others like me that don't want to drill holes in their original. I am also slowly designing other parts for said project and will make these part available for purchase. A customer has requested a Haltech bezel and I am making it available to all. There is a Bezel to fit the 2x4 keypad and the larger 3x5 keypad available too. Bezels can be purchased separately also, for those that have purchased the original kit.

This is a 3D printed kit that enable a short chassis double din (180mm x 100mm) radio to be installed where the sunglasses holder would sit in a Holden VL Commodore. The complete kit is printed in ASA (similar to ABS but UV resistant). This kit comes two different bezels for the radio holder that allow for a 70mm and 90mm deep radio chassis using the recessed bezel and flat bezel, respectively. To fill the original single DIN radio slot the kit comes with two blanking panels. One is a blank panel that can be drilled for switches and gauges and the other is a two 52mm gauge pod.
The radio is mounted to two side inserts that are screwed into the holder as shown in the photos, or from the back. To securely mount the holder to the center console you can either use double sided tape or use the three mounting locations. The kit includes three oval shaped mounting pads that can be CA glued from to the underside o the console and has a M4 melt in for M4 bolts to fasten the holder down to the console. The forward mounting location has a cap to hide the mounting bolt.
The kits is all raw black ASA you will need to prime and paint the pieces.
If you would like custom radio blank panels, delete the forward mounting location or something else please message me, I am happy to draw up that part and print the piece. This radio holder was made for someone that reached out for his car, he had a different idea for the original radio slot but I have added the blanking panel and gauge pod to make it a more complete kit.
The Kit Contains:
1x Radio holder
1x Stepped fascia (supports 70mm deep radio chassis)
1x Recessed fascia (supports 90mm deep radio chassis)
1x Radio slot cover plate
1x First Gen Commodore Radio slot to twin gauge pod plate
1X Radio cover mounting base
all the mounting and fastening hardware is included too (screws, nuts and bolts)
The kits is all raw black ASA you will need to prime and paint the pieces.

About me
I am a passionate engineer and researcher; and to keep myself sane from my day job as a technology analyst in the defence sector, I make things in my shed. I have a PhD in mechanical engineering, a double degree in mechanical engineering specializing in automotive engineering and a computer science. So I enjoy everything from designing automotive pieces to building home severs.
My friends have told me that I should document more of my builds and this site will also document my builds and things that I have designed, both automotive and not.
