IKEA EKET base on legs extender

I have the IKEA EKET cabinet with 2 drawers under my TV, and the EKET base for the cabinet was around 6-7 cm high so my vacuum cleaner robot Roomba couldn't reach to fetch all the dust that gets caught there. I made 4 "extenders" for the cabinet base legs that once printed didn't require any additional tools to be mounted. Every leg goes directly into the hole of the extender and stays in place, extending it by 3cm which was more than enough for me. The fit is pretty good so there's no wobble and you'll probably need to put some pressure into mounting extenders onto legs until they go all the way in. However that should be pretty easy as when you put all 4 extenders on legs gravity helps a lot. I went with 40% infill because I wanted the extenders to be pretty strong, but you could do it probably with less than that as now that it's all done I can see that it was definitely an overkill. The cabinet is still sturdy and extenders can withstand weight quite nicely. I used white PLA so it follows the design of the cabinet perfectly. This is a total win for me and my Roomba can now go and fetch all the dust under the cabinet. I hope someone else finds this useful.
