2012 Ford Focus (3rd gen) Parcel Shelf Latch

thingiverse

I designed a replacement part for my 2012 Ford Focus's worn-out parcel shelf hinges, specifically targeting the inner (center) component. My goal was to create a larger surface area that can be securely attached to the possibly damaged parcel shelf using staples, stitches or sewing, without compromising its structural integrity. At the same time, I aimed to facilitate smooth clipping of the outer piece onto this new attachment point. Given the trunk interior's tendency to get extremely hot, it is crucial to 3D print this part with a heat-resistant material such as PETG or ABS. To ensure versatility and flexibility in installation, I deliberately avoided making any holes in the design. Instead, users will need to drill their own holes for securing the piece to the parcel shelf.
