Description
This is a holder for the ignition switch on a Datsun 620. My original clamshell is not in great shape, so the switch has been zip-tied to the column for quite some time. This just makes it look vaguely less… ratty?
Created with a 5 degree tilt up and to the side.
Printed in PETG, it should work well in many climates. No supports needed. Whatever infill you're feeling.
I designed it with using a piece of silicone hose in mind to prevent slippage.
Put your big ol' zip ties in the slots, tighten them till you can't, then maybe use a pair of vice grips to get a couple more clicks, but be careful, as the zip ties may break, launching your face into the steering wheel… which certainly didn't happen to me.
Depending on the switch you use, you may need the spacer.
Let me know if there are any issues.
