I 3D printed caps for all of the roof mount and mirror bolt holes out of PETG. I hit them on the belt sander in one direction to make a straight grain look like black anodized aluminum.
What was today's Sling project-Mods , goodies....?

-
I made my own license plate trim ring. It's hard to see, but the material I use is textured like all the black plastic on my Sling.
-
I 3D printed inserts out of flexible black TPU, for my drink holders to suit the water bottles that use. I got tired of them moving around and rattling. They are held in place with plastic panel retainers, through the hole at the bottom.
-
I 3D printed a copy of my steering wheel quick release hub, and attached it to the wall in my office to hold my wheel

To each his own.

To everyone with an EZ-Pass, you can fit the smaller EZ-Pass underneath the white panel on the dashboard, and hold it in place with the included velcro strips.

I apologize for all my weak contributions to the Slingshot community. I will have to step up my game and put more effort forth. You know, like more worthwhile things.
LOL

The little things are very useful to lots of Slingshot owners. Keep them coming.

....hey I need a set of these for just my mirrors , hate when water gets down there and I'm always blowing it out.........if possible PM me a price with shipping and do you zelle........

I mounted a mirror to my roof frame. I drilled a hole for a threaded nutsert, and 3D printed a piece to match the radius of the tube, and give me a flat surface to mount a RAM mount ball.

I installed a short shifter last night. You all know what it looks like, so no pictures.

I plan on buying the Einstar 3D scanner, as soon as I buy a new computer to run it. I am going to reverse engineer everything and anything I want. Big or small. Worthwhile or not.
Who knows, maybe I will reverse engineer the fuel fill, so I can make a new inlet that all gas pumps will work with. Or, maybe that would be a fickle waste of time. Oh wait, it's my time that I would be wasting, I almost forgot.

I have considered installing a stereo system, but I think my concepts are over most peoples head. If I do a system, I will lay it all out then.
Here are some examples of audio projects I have done:
For guitar, a tube combo amp on the left. Spherical cabinet on the right.
Some boomboxes;
Let's not forget car audio;
In one of my other vehicles, my phone is my head unit, my EQ is my volume, and it also puts out over 9 volts thru the RCA's to the amp. The gain on my amp is set to minimum. I run a 200 watt amp for my entire system. 4 inch coaxials in the dash, 8 inch midbass in the doors, and two 12" subs. People thing I am running a lot of power when they hear it, but it all comes down to the setup.

Dude! You're a genius to me. Imagination, creativity and mad skills. I see your 'little ' projects and think, 'Yep, I'd like one of those. Nope, don't know how'. Howzabout coming to Huntsville so we can see your work in person?

Had the same idea for 3D printing caps for the exposed bolts after installing a top. Stuck a copy of the Sling logo on them. The .stl files are attached. I printed with PETG since it's pretty UV resistant and tough.Hex Covers wLogo.zip

I found and awesome dome light to mount to my roof frame. It is USB rechargeable and detaches from the mount so you can use it as a flashlight.
Ordered. Thanks Oomp !
But I'm going to cut the white tag off of mine.

Off with the day bags on with the big bag brackets. Malibu, San Simeon, Santa Cruz, Eureka, and staying for two days in the redwood forest, then back down PCH to Pismo, then Ventura and home. Can’t believe we’re bringing the leather jackets as the highs are only in the 60’s ! Couldn’t ask for a better week ride!
