BACKGROUND:
I'm using a Wolffilms Smartphone Dashcam Holder within my car as a smartphone mount. Unfortunately, the small connector piece between the suction cup mount and the smartphone mount broke some days ago so I decided, that this might be a nice first project.

PARTS MENTIONED:

The broken connector can be seen here in its original state: https://www.arktis.de/products/wolffilms-smartphone-to-gopro-dji-osmo-action-flexible-adapter 

NOTE:
This is a “work in progress”, any improvements are welcome. Until now I printed the part as a prototype in PLA and the screw thread (which is out of metal in the original one) “didn't perform as intended”, means it didn't withstand the first mounting.

NEXT STEPS: 
a) printing the part in PETG, which will be a first-timer for me and testing the screw thread again
b) redesigning the part in order to somehow include a metal screw within the design

TIMELAPSE:
As I am also experimenting with octolapse, I did a timelapse of the prototype print which also showed some room for improvements, as the printhead unfortunately felt the urge to “print in air”:
