Mercedes W114/115 Power Window Switch Mount

This is my attempt at modeling the center console panel that holds the power window switches in the '68-'76 Mercedes W114 & W115 cars. This part is NLA new, difficult to find used and frequently broken or cracked like mine was. While it's not perfectly accurate -- the curves on the side edges is a little off, and it doesn't have the pebble-grain texture of the original because the texturing was beyond my skillset at the time I modeled this.  

This was my first from-scratch 3D model and first attempt at reverse-engineering a physical part, done while I was a complete newbie with Fusion 360. Model is upside down, the "bottom" is the visible surface. Printing with the "bottom" up will give a better finish on the visible areas, but will require a lot of support material.

W114_Window_Switch_Bezel.zip file contains STL, STEP and F3D formats, the v3 .zip is a version allowing the main panel and legs to be printed separately, which reduces the amount of support material needed to print with the visible side of the panel on top instead of on the print bed.

Notes:

DO NOT PRINT THIS IN PLA! IT WON'T HOLD UP INSIDE A CAR! Use ABS or PETG or nylon if you're really worried about strength

Post-Printing:  Remove support material. If printing the V3, glue the legs in place. Finish the visible surfaces to your desired level of fit & finish with sanding/filling/painting, acetone vapor smoothing, vinyl/leather wrapping or whatever.
