Description

PDF

This model allows you to locally produce/replace the ‘clips’ that hold in the various Telsa Model 3 and Model Y sunshades that are sold on Amazon.  Typically, these sunshades are chinese made and are either missing their clips, dont include enough clips, or are lost sometime during their lifetime.   Additionally, these clips are either not available to purchase separately, or are too expensive for what they are.  This clip is not 100% identical, but it works exactly the same both physically, and cosmetically.  During installation, during use, and from inside the vehicle, you wont know the difference.  

Printing Hints:

  • Print in PETG, ABS or a plastic with a high temperature resistance.  PLA will deform in the real world!
    -  At the end of the day, these clips are going in an automotive application and may be exposed to very high interior temperatures of 150F+ / 65F+ when your vehicle is parked in the sun, etc.
     - Some PETGs may also not be up to the task and will deform in the hot car (i.e. Arizona in summer in direct sunlight).  If you park your car in an extreme environment, then use ASA or ABS!
  • Print accuracy is not that critical.  0.3mm is fine.
  • The shape requires supports.  I prefer printing in the configuration as the GCODE file (i.e printing on its side – as shown in the photo) as this direction minimizes support material removal after the print.   
  • Typical original colors are (Tesla) offwhite or black.  Of course, choose your color you want.  Remember.  PETG or better!  No PLA!

Some samples on Amazon that these clips are compatible with:

Xipoo (Amazon)
Basenor (Amazon)
SUMK (Amazon)
Nakonic (Amazon)

I'm ‘guessing’ these clips will also work on many other sunshades.
