Hyundai i30 (2017) cup holder

thingiverse

I replaced the original cup holders in my Hyundai i30's interior with new ones I printed myself. Since three of them were missing, it was a good opportunity to create some replacements. Initially, I thought I'd use metal springs inside the holder shells, but after searching local hobby stores, I couldn't find any. So, I ended up printing the spring itself. It looks great and probably works too - although I haven't tested it yet since I didn't have a cup handy. The print job was a breeze, with no supports required. I'm including the Fusion360 file for anyone who wants to replicate this project. My printer of choice is the Prusa i3 MK3, using 0.2mm layer thickness, 20% infill, and PLA filament.
