Description

I created this bigger version of the Volkswagen Golf 4 middle sun visor because the original is way too small to properly block the sun.

Like the original, the replacement consists of two parts: a mounting plate and a folding screen.

Both parts should be printed with support. I recommend printing the mounting plate standing upright as shown in the stl visualization (using a brim or raft). This way the clip holding the screen will become stronger.

Pease note that the width of the screen is 275mm...

Different angles included in case you're having trouble with the "Thingiview" feature.

I believe the original part OEM is 3B0858555 and it should also replace the visor in Passat, Bora, Polo etc. with a construction year of around 2000.

Pricing assumptions and exclusions

USD: ($6 setup + $3 finishing + filament weight × assumed spool cost × 1.25 waste allowance + print hours × $2.50 × material time factor) ÷ 0.65. Rounded up to the next $0.50.

Assumed spool costs per kg: PLA $25, PETG $30, ASA $40, ABS $30, TPU $45, Nylon $65, PA-CF $95. Time factors: PLA/PETG 1.0, ASA/ABS 1.2, TPU 1.6, Nylon 1.4, PA-CF 1.5. These are proposed shop rates, not measured production costs.

Design work, test fitting, hardware, shipping and tax are additional where needed. Multi-file sets may need several prints. Use actual sliced weight and time when available. Final pricing is confirmed in writing.
