BMW 3 Series E46 Clips & Fasteners Pack – 25 STL Files
These BMW 3 Series E46 3D printed parts are the small ones that go missing first: 25 STL files for door trim clips, sill clips, dash fasteners, headlight clips and service plugs. The pack costs €29.99. Bought one at a time, the same files cost €149.75, so you save 80%.
Anyone who has pulled an E46 door card knows the sound of old clips breaking. The plastic gets brittle with age and a dealer bag of clips is not always in stock. Printing your own means you can have a box of spares ready before you start the job, in exactly the shape you need.
Clip types in this pack
| Group | Files |
|---|---|
| Dash, panel & interior trim clips | 11 |

How it works
- Buy the pack once.
- Download the STL files right away. Nothing is posted to you.
- Print a batch. PETG is a good choice for clips because it bends a little before it breaks. Use ASA near the headlights or engine.
FAQ
Will printed clips hold as well as the originals?
For trim and panels they do the job well when printed in PETG with enough walls. Print a few extra: clips are cheap to make and some always get lost.
Which print settings work for small clips?
A 0.4 mm nozzle, 0.12–0.16 mm layers and 100% infill give the strongest result on parts this small.
Some files mention E90 or X5. Do they fit the E46?
BMW shared some clips across models. The title lists every model the designer named. Compare with your broken clip first.
Who made the models?
Independent designers. You find their names on each single product page.
