Description
These knobs snug on a little pivot with a flat side. The block/Pivot Test file is what i used to get the right dimensions for the hole that fits over the pivot (it took me about 6 iterations to get it right, i didn't want to print 6 whole knobs...)
The three knobs look identical, but in my car they are slightly different: The middle one (fan speed) needed a slightly shorter cylinder-part. The right one (temperature) had the angle of the flat side different compared to the other two. I'm not sure if this is (terrible/French) design or the years of physical abuse i've put my car through. ;->
Anyway, the script allows for easy customization of the dimensions, pivot angle etcetera.
Look at the commentary in the code for more information.

Print instructions
* The knobs in my car are all slightly different. I'm not sure if this is normal, or caused by the years of abuse i've put my car through over the years. ;->
* The measurements for pivot radius and flat side are VERY important. A tenth of a mm too big and the knob can spin freely without "grabbing" the pivot it's supposed to control. Too small and the knob won't fit all together. I suspect this also very closely correlates to the precision of the printer. Keep a file ready, or prepare to make a few prototypes.
* There's a file called "Pivot test". It creates a block with the pivot hole. I used it to find decent measurements for the pivot radius.

Print price estimates
Planning prices for one print, not a final quote. Defaults use a size allowance inferred from the part name, not a measured or sliced model. Filament suitability must be confirmed.
| Filament | USD / print | Application notes |
|---|---|---|
| PLA | $21.50 | Indoor prototypes; not a default material for hot vehicle interiors. |
| PETG | $21.50 | General-purpose candidate; heat and creep need review. |
| ASA | $23.50 | Candidate for UV exposure; verify temperature and geometry. |
| ABS | $22.50 | Enclosed printing; review application and dimensions. |
| TPU | $26.00 | Flexible designs only; not a substitute for rigid materials. |
| Nylon | $26.00 | Moisture, tolerances and application require review. |
| PA-CF | $28.00 | Filled nylon; abrasive filament and fit need review. |
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.
