Smart 451 Kick-Panel Retainer Clip

thingiverse

The kick panel clips are...heh...fragile on a Smart 451 at least. They snap on the rail fingers easily. And while you can get parts for these online, like the Plastic Retention Nut I made (Also included in my designs on here) it's not like you've got 2-4 weeks to wait for the silly thing from in off of eBay, Daimler's parts supply houses, etc. to lay hands on this. You needed it NOW not later. This comprises a simple fix that lets you print one or more of these quickly (Four prints in about an hour on the Ender 3 v2 I have...) and get the silly kick panel up on the same day or similar of the day you pulled the panel and broke the things. They are simple...fairly durable compared to the Stock ones... Just slide them in on the clip grooves on the kick panel, Bottom side (You want to orient the print with the fingers pointed UP) facing towards you and install like normal. The fingers are just enough to get the pegs/screws (they're really self-tapping screws as studs...) to grip the clip and hold it with a similar retention force to the Stock ones. Don't force them on or off (Use the same level of good judgement as you'd use with the Stock clips and they'll well outlast the others.) and follow that bit of advice (Fingers face OUTWARD from the Tridion Capsule.)
