944 Glove Box Hinge Arms Replacements

[Tom]

Here are STL's for replacement support arms on the '85.5+ (non-airbag) glove compartment door. From the factory, these arms are molded in as part of the door substrate, so when they snap off, there's no good way to reattach them. You can buy similar repair arms from Rennline and other suppliers, but they cost quite a bit and don't look like the originals. I had only one arm break off, so designed these to closely match the look of the original. There is a left and right arm, so that both can be printed flat on their back. I recommend ABS to hold up on hot days and look factory. NC944er's excellent video, below, shows how to install them. Once installed, these arms look factory and are every bit as sturdy.

This is awesome!
I'm going to print these off in black ABS today and will update once installed

Should be better than the speaker wire straps installed by a previous owner.

Tom - thank you for creating these. Just perfect !

I have a 968CS, which obviously doesn’t have an airbag. I assume that the non-airbag arms are still applicable for my car?
