I wanted some interesting lights for my crawler and I designed these inspired by the iconic BMW lights.

The files are split based on the filament needed.
in the opaque parts you have the iris and two variants of the case:
- a round one
- one that has a mount that uses an m3 screw (you will have to mirror along x or y to get both sides).
The translucent part is the insert that will let the light shine through (I used translucent PETG, without any tint and a red light to get the effect in the pictures).
Prerequisites:
- translucent filament
- opaque filament
- 5mm round LEDs
- M3 screws if you print the variant that has a screw mount
- transparent glue (superglue)
Instructions:
- In prints without supports in the provided orientation, the resolution isn't relevant, the models do not have fine details.
- Print the translucent part at 100% infill, the light will be more consistent.
- The easiest way to assemble is to put a bit of glue on the chamfered edge of the translucent part and insert it into the case. Drop a very small amount of glue (if you use more it will spill out) in the space left for the iris and place the iris on top.
- depending of the tolerances of the LEDs you might need to either enlarge the hole with a drill or glue it in place or (if you are really lucky) the LED will friction fit.
