Number Plate Light Lens
2002-2009 Mercedes Clk W209
Description
A replacement lens for the number plate lights on the back of the Mercedes CLK W209. Includes a version with the legs to hold the lamp bulb itself and a version without the legs. You must of course use a clear filament and PETG may be better than PLA due to it's slight increase in resistance to heat and weather. I would also advise putting a little bit of silicone sealant around the rim of the lens to prevent water ingress. I have included bottom sections with a thickness of 0.2mm to 0.8mm, depending on how much light you want to pass through vs how strong the part will be. I advise 0.2mm or 0.4mm to make sure the light can get through correctly. Of course you can use the pause at height function in CURA to make these two tone as I have.
Print Instructions
Standard FDM printing settings: - Layer height: 0.2mm - Infill: 70% - Supports: As needed
