Description

My kids broke the cover of one of the sockets, so I had to design a replacement.

The hinges are under a bit of stress, so print it with some durable material. I've printed mine with PC, but I assume PETG should work too.

For removing the broken cover you'll have to remove the socket, carefully break some plastic on the back to free at least one side of the rod and pull it out.

To mount the new cover mount the rod and spring in the cover, slide the rod completely to one side, insert it from the front, push the spring in place, and align the rod. It should keep just like that - though to make sure it won't jump out it can be sensible to cover the broken part with some glue or plastic from a 3D pen.

The rubber seal and the O-ring from the original cover can be reused on this one. Check the pictures for more details.

 

Update: Turns out the additional ring on the original part indeed helps with sealing the socket when not in use - so the updated part now also has that detail. Additionally a ring to hold the rubber seal in place if the original doesn't work or went missing got added.
