VW up! boot lamp holder

thingiverse

Here's a simple fix for the first gen VW up! that doesn't have a boot lamp in any trim level. I'm using a PIR LED lamp with batteries mounted on one of the hooks in the trunk. First, glue the two parts together and attach the lamp to the hook using zip-ties. There are two holes in the front plate for M3 screws that will prevent the lamp from sliding. I've used headless set screws as shown in the image. To ensure the lamp doesn't melt in a hot vehicle, print it in ABS, PETG or another high-temperature plastic like nylon. Avoid using PLA as it will melt and deform in extreme heat. For gluing ABS parts together, I recommend using nitro thinners or acetone. You can find the PIR LED lamp on eBay at the following link: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kingavon-8-LED-Light-with-PIR-Sensor-Black-Garden-Garages/223068073254?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D225114%26meid%3D473b10bbe1b845529b5e03402743ca17%26pid%3D100227%26rk%3D4%26rkt%3D14%26sd%3D352309719033%26itm%3D223068073254%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2053904&_trksid=p2053904.c100227.m3827
