80 Series Toyota Land Cruiser floppy vent fix

thingiverse

Like many, the FJ80's floppy vents have me stumped from loose tabs snapping off. In my case, the pins on the vents were sheared off clean, and the small plates that mated with them crumbled when I removed them.\r\n\r\nTo fix this issue, I designed a 3D printable part that fits snugly into the vent housing. This new piece has a pin that perfectly matches a hole drilled directly into the vents themselves. Check out the render for the middle vent - the side vent needs a slight offset adjustment in its design. The dimensions are all listed in millimeters.
