Audi A3 2016-2020 air vent phone holder base

I designed this phone holder base to go between the 2 middle dash air vents of the Audi A3 (2016-2020 models). It sits flash on the dashboard for extra stability hence it is advised to sand very well the back or use some soft foil on the back so that the dashboard is not marked from vibrations.

The design has a generic ball mount. I used an Ugreen MagSafe type mount. https://amzn.eu/d/4pSc8sI

p.s. This is my first ever design.

--EDIT: PLA was to weak so I had to reprint in PETG. Even better ABS or ASA since in summer the temperatures hitting the dashboard might be quite high. --

make sure no rough edges are left on the back so that vibrations do not damage the dashboard where the thing sits.

I used vinyl leather look foil to skin the thingy front and back.
