ScanGauge II 3D printed mount

If anyone is interested, I designed and made a 3D printed spacer so that the ScanGuage II can fit on the curved steering column. I used thin 3M VHB tape and it fits much better than using the velcro alone.

You can print your own, or if you dont have a printer and you want one I can ship you one for just the cost of the shipping + materials.

I’d like one how much?

$10 (edit: now $15 due to how busy I am with other projects now) should cover shipping, packing materials, and printing materials to anywhere in the lower 48.

Does anyone know if the steering column housing is the same for all 5th gen 4Runners? If they are, I'd like one of these!

At first glance of some photos it looks to be the same, but I'd like someone to test it out and confirm it fits the pre-facelift 5th gen. I'll send you one and refund you the money if it doesn't fit.

Don't want to step on [MENTION=244368]geofox784[/MENTION] toes here, but I have a '13 TE and my new 3D printer arrives tomorrow. :bravo: This looks like a pretty easy early print for me to try my hand at and I'll be able to confirm fitment on a pre facelift 5th Gen. Will (hopefully) be able to try it out this weekend and report back.

I will not be selling these though. I'll leave that to OP, it's his design and he offered first.
 
Success on early 5th Gen

I got one printed out and mounted in my early 5th Gen ('13 TE) and it's perfect. I hit the edges of the 3M tape with a sharpie so it didn't stick out so much, but I rushed it a bit and will likely do that part over.

The lines are perfect and made for a much more solid mounting than the double sided tape I had just stuck it on with previously.

One note on printing it out, I did have a little trouble getting good adhesion on the print bed with the bracket oriented vertically as it comes in the download. I ended up flipping it on its back so there was more surface area to work with and had much better success printing.

Big thanks to [MENTION=244368]geofox784[/MENTION] for putting this together and making it available to download and print for ourselves. For those without a 3D printer, don't hesitate to order one from him, it's a good piece.

Still waiting on getting an actual scan gauge but did purchase and received my mount. I’ve been looking for something like this for a while and glad the OP offered his services to the forum! He’s quick to respond and prompt with mailing these out. $10 well spent!

$10 shipped via standard snail mail. $15 shipped via a padded envelope 3 day mail. Let me know if that works and what your address is. Because of work I won't be able to ship anything until the 1st.
 
Here's the Scangauge and [MENTION=244368]geofox784[/MENTION] mount in my truck.
