SALAD DODGER

Saw that a couple of weeks ago. £42 is even more expensive and one will need to be thrown away. Think I'll get my own 3D setup! Just think of all the items people would want.

Hi Ash. That depends n what position your life is in. I'm 72 and a pensioner so £70 is an expense in the "wrong" direction.
We have owned this MGF for a long time now and its just sod's law that ours has fog lights that most other MGFs don't have.
I'll find one in the end. It just take's time.

Hi
Could someone scan these increasingly hard to find parts and 3D print? Ash

These and the fog light mounts are the sort of parts that are made of unobtainium, but would be easy to 3D scan and print.
The other thing that would be handy for fitting these would be a copy of the fitting instructions, the cutting template in particular.
Though I suspect all of those would’ve been thrown out or fallen to bits long ago.

Salad Dodger, you could take the one from the other side and have it 3D scanned, then they can flip it over on the computer to give the correct coordinates for the opposite side then they can 3D print that.

I did actually find someone who has indeed 3D printed these fog light trim rings but they sell them for around £35 each which I think is a bit expensive though I doubt they sell many of them due to there not being many cars that actually have them fitted. If you look at it in the way that some buyers would need two of them, it does make it a bit of an outlay for many owners. I had a hard job to even find a replacement fog light. Even when I found one it wasn't the same as mine. It required a different bulb so I changed the connection plug to suit.

Thanks for that input. You can be sure that I'll be looking at this in all directions but it looks like they are quite hard to find so I search on.

Thanks Bertl but who would the usual suspects be? Rimmers don't have them.

I'm looking for the finishing ring/bezel for the near side fog light. Mine must have fallen off somewhere.
I have a picture of the one on the other side for reference. Any colour will do. Thanks.
