Description
This is a slip cover for an autel VCI200 scan tool dongle. These do not come with any way to attach a lanyard/strap to them, making it very easy to accidentally plugged in under the dash of a vehicle. This solves that issue fairly cleanly. I recommend printing in PETG as it has better temperature handling. This is a decent friction fit , PETG has less change of relaxing and loosening over time. PLA will still work if that's all you have. I printed on a cryogrip build plate and it printed fine oriented vertically on the OBD face but you may need a brim depending on your set up. I believe the base STL file will need the orientation change so it will print standing up, as it was sitting on its side in the design software. Uses 16.5 grams of filament as uploaded.
Updated 4-5-26 with a profile tuned for a TPU sleeve. Gives just a little bit of cushion to protect the VCI a bit more!
