Description

I designed this gauge pod to replace a blank DIN plate I had in my Miata. It was modeled in Fusion 360. It holds 2 52 mm gauges, and 2 toggle switches that were already wired into my car but just installed into jagged cutouts on my old blank DIN plate before.

Dimensions are 182mm x 60mm x 10mm with a 3mm shell thickness.

Gauge holes are nominally 52mm diameter

Cutout for square switch (methanol) is 30mm x 12mm
Hole for Launch control switch is 12.5mm diameter

The 2 holes above and below the bridge of material between the 2 52mm gauge cutouts are designed to fit M4 socket head cap screw hardware, and the interface for making the plate stay installed in your car is meant to attach to these bolts. You'll have to create your own mounting solution. Their center positions are 67mm from the left edge and 8mm from the top or bottom respectively.

Blank plates are snap fit. Worked for me printed in ABS. (0.2mm layer height, 20% honeycomb infill, no supports, no rafts)

This was meant to be a perfect solution for me, so I'd be surprised if it was exactly what you are looking for (2 gauge and 2 mis-matched toggle switch designs, but hey, I was asked to share the STL so I figured I'd start my own Thingiverse account and begin giving back to this wonderful open source inspired community.

The recessed text on the face is barely legible but it served as a lettering guide for me to use white paint.

The switches came already installed on my car but here are links ti similar products that should work in this plate.

If this helps you, I'd love to see pictures of the install.

FilamentUSD / printApplication notes
PLA$28.50Indoor prototypes; not a default material for hot vehicle interiors.
PETG$29.00General-purpose candidate; heat and creep need review.
ASA$32.50Candidate for UV exposure; verify temperature and geometry.
ABS$31.50Enclosed printing; review application and dimensions.
TPU$37.50Flexible designs only; not a substitute for rigid materials.
Nylon$37.50Moisture, tolerances and application require review.
PA-CF$42.50Filled 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.
