Alfa Romeo 159 / Brera grill mount for LED bar
Description
EDIT: I mounted the LEDbars yesterday, I was able to mount both of them when installing this mount in the lower slab of the grill. The mounts of these particular LEDbars were a bit tight, there's not much clearance between the "hinge" and the bolt hole that comes against this printed mount. That's something to keep an eye on if you use the same LEDbars as I do, the bolts have to be just the correct length. Looking at my design, I am sure they wouldn't throw a cocktail party in Arese to celebrate it, but hey, it works... :) --- I needed a simple mount for my cheap chinese LEDbar to mount it on the wife's Alfa Romeo 159 to improve visibility in the dark winter months. This will attach to the scudetto, the front grill of a 159 or a Brera, and it can be removed without leaving a mark on the grill, which is a nice bonus. I am still printing the other one for the other side. I think you could use this as an attachment surface for a larger LEDbar as well, but it should work at least with the small one I have, which is very light. If you use it to mount a bigger one, you might want to have more surface layers or higher infill, perhaps even consider PETG instead of PLA. I'll see how it holds up in the nordic winter, and maybe I can update this in the spring for further advice...
