If you had the same idea, stop it! Sound quality sucks.\u003cbr\u003eHowever I repositioned the microphone to a better place and got left with a button cover with an ugly hole in it. So I took measures and printed a perfectly fitting replacement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI have it in my pre-facelift BMW 328i E46. Please comment if you have a different car and it fits!\u003cbr\u003ePossible fit: BMW E28, E39, E46 and the first Z4, X3 and X5.\u003cbr\u003eAlthough it works fine with any non-flexible filament I highly recommend using PETG or ABS, some material that resists heat a little more. My first variant made of PLA+ didn't survive the first summer...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOf course you can take this design for a remix if you have a cool idea what to put there instead. Don't forget to post it to Thingiverse! I added one variant which can store an Apple AirTag so it's hidden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible vehicles\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e1998-2006 Bmw 3 Series E46\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003eAlways compare with your original part before printing.
