Touareg 7L tail light screw caps
Description
The VW Touareg has cover caps that hide the screws that secure the tails lights. To change the light bulbs these caps get popped out so the screws can be accessed. They usually break when you do this. VW in Australia charge $50 for a set of these, ouch thats nuts. There is another design on Thingiverse but its not a very good match, I want the part to look original at a glance. So I designed my own version with more strength and the top surface is conceived like the original. I used a photon mono SE resin printer to get the resolution required. You can use FDM type printer but I recommend the layer hight of 0.1mm. one the slicer use at least 0.05mm layer hight, model on a 30deg angle and supports to the build plate. Copy as many of the models to your need. Even with the resin printer some light sanding with wet rub sand paper is required. Once the layer lines are not visible use a plastic polish. The end result will look original. I used a tough resin that can flex with out breaking.
