Description

This is a gauge pod for the ashtray of a BMW Z4 E85. Print standing for a better finish at the top plate. Print at 0.2 or lower for better results. After the print: 1. Cut off the supports 2. Remove the ashtray from your Z4 there are many videos on how to do so. 3. In order to fit the gauge pod into the ashtray, you need to cut out a bit of plastic. (If you want to reverse your installation don't worry an OEM ashtray panel is around 60$). 4. Fit the print inside the lower part of the ashtray panel. 5. Done I'm not a professional 3D Artist just a car guy in need for a gauge pod.
