I was unsatisfied with a lot of the available replacement mounting plates for a Subaru Impreza Visor

The mount that holds the visor to the interior of my Subaru Impreza broke in half (there's a picture attached). Subaru says this is not a replaceable part and you have to buy THE WHOLE VISOR ASSEMBLY to replace. I am far too cheap to spend $100 on a part that I know will be defective and break again. This is not just a “me problem” either. Several other people have had this part break and have attempted repair with 3D printing. Of course, this leads to the “other people's models” problem and I had no luck with a couple different parts I had tried. Nothing was drop-in, nor were they robust. I found one that I liked, but the model was lacking detail and was not sized properly. I could have made it work but I don't like doing that.
I recreated the model based on the broken part. It fits in place with very little post processing. It allows tight attachment of the Subraru molded cover that goes over the mount to hide the screws. The only thing it doesn't have is the original snap-clip that holds the visor in place before the screws are attached; so if you can live with holding the visor in place while you get the screws started, this is the model for you. The driver's side and passengers side have slightly different geometries, but it's just a mirror image. I have attached both sets of STLs and a STEP file of the driver's side model.
I have a screenshot of the suggested build plate orientation of all the parts above. I suggest printing this out of some sort of nylon material. When attaching to the visor, super-glue the two halves together, wait for it to dry, then bust out a soldering iron and melt the two halves together BEFORE installing the ring over the wire connector/post. Make sure the ring is a snug fit on the post before gluing in place. Some light rotary sanding may be necessary for a tight fit. It should be flush with the top of the two halves of the mount.
Also the usual disclaimer: I am not associated with nor endorsed by Subaru. You use this model at your own risk.
