5th Gen 4Runner Alpine Microphone Mount

--- Update 1:16pm, April 28, 2021 --- Disregard all previous files and designs. The design was no good and was impossible to install the Alpine Mic. I've redesigned the engagement points of the 3D print so that it captures the Alpine mic and allows for install from the top. The previous design was no good because the print could not flex enough to allow for the mic to be installed. I've tried it with 2 different Alpine Mics (both have pretty large variations in the OD, 13.83mm to 14.14mm) The model is now sized at 14.25mm ID with a tab that prevents the mic from falling out through the bottom, and a top tab that is captive with the slots for the body of the mic. Again... PETG or better material (PLA is not recommended) 100% infil Supports everywhere ---- --- Update 11:30pm April 27, 2021 --- A friend brought over his Alpine mic after he told me the print didn't fit his Alpine mic. He too is about to install an ILX-F309 into his 4runner. His Alpine mic diameter measured between 14.05mm to 14.12mm in OD, where as my measured between 13.85mm to 14.01mm in OD. Needless to say v1 of the STL file originally added to this post isn't going to work. I've modified the solid model to 14.15mm ID, I've also increased the wall thickness that holds the mic to 3mm thick, as the original 1.5mm wall thickness was too thin and cracked easily. ------ A remix of KPTexan's mic mount modified for Alpine Microphones. The alpine mic should be ALPINE 50-14386Z03 MIC. My mic came from my ILX-309FRN kit. But I think there is only 1 Alpine mic. Print in same orientation as the CAD generated image. Use Supports "everywhere". Clean your heatbed thoroughly as the print has very little surface area to stick to your heatbed. if you have troubles getting this to print, cut print speed by 50%. Lastly, this should be printed in PETG at the very minimum. In car temps in the summer can reach 110F. PLA will start getting soft at around 50 to 60C (which is around 120F to 140F). ABS would be ideal for this.
