Suzuki Samurai Interior Rearview Mirror Spacer (1986)

The interior rearview mirror on a 1986 Suzuki Samurai mounts over a small spacer. Mine needed replacing, and it is not a part anybody stocks on its own. So I drew it.

This is a direct replacement: same job, same place, no trimming and no drilling.

Print it in PETG. This is the one setting worth copying. The part sits at the top of the windshield, behind metal, in the sun, and a closed car gets far hotter than the air outside. PLA will go soft there.

Everything else can stay at your slicer's defaults. It is 14 x 14 x 8.3 mm and it carries a screw, not a load; it does not need to be clever.

Orientation: I have printed it both broad side up and on its side. Broad side up needs no supports, so start there. In theory it is the weaker of the two, because the layer lines run across the direction the screw pulls and layer adhesion is the weak axis in any printed part. In practice I have not tested either to failure and mine is holding fine. Printing it on its side should give better layer orientation for that load, but then you need supports.

Fitment was measured off my own 1986 Samurai. Samurai, SJ413 and Sierra vary by market and year, so measure before you print if yours is not the same.

Files: the 3MF is the printable. I have also included the STEP, so you can open it in Fusion, SolidWorks, Onshape or anything else and change a dimension, and the original FreeCAD file with the sketches intact. This is meant to be remixed; if your mirror needs a different height, do not redraw it from scratch.
