Description
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7168050
The Il Motorsport console is a great console. It has some cool accessories, including a 12v battery powered light that turns on when the lid is opened. It is very bright and cold harsh light. The below allow you to use dimmer/warmer leds and connect it to the lighting circuit of the car, using the ashtray light harness from the oem console. You can probably do either of these mods if you like the quality of light or don't mind occasional battery replacement.
1 is a dummy MN21/23 battery that is used to bring 12v from the ashtray light connector on the OEM console to the accessory light for the popular aftermarket Il Motorsport console.
Use small ring terminals and short screws, I think #4 x .25" to connect the wire to each end.
2 is a replacement card for the led circuit board insert. It fits in the lamp assembly like the original board. It has 4 notches to allow two small zip ties to secure 3 new dimmer/warmer LED modules. The notches are spaced so the zip ties fit between the leds on the new led modules. There is a square hole that accomodates the led module wires and the largest component on the rear of the new modules.

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 | $42.50 | Indoor prototypes; not a default material for hot vehicle interiors. |
| PETG | $43.50 | General-purpose candidate; heat and creep need review. |
| ASA | $50.00 | Candidate for UV exposure; verify temperature and geometry. |
| ABS | $48.00 | Enclosed printing; review application and dimensions. |
| TPU | $60.50 | Flexible designs only; not a substitute for rigid materials. |
| Nylon | $60.00 | Moisture, tolerances and application require review. |
| PA-CF | $69.00 | 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.
