Transmission Axle Plugs – 1996-2021 Lotus Elise
3D-printed replacement transmission axle plugs made for the 1996-2021 Lotus Elise: a simple way to replace a cracked, lost or hard-to-find original part.
About this part
I'm doing a clutch job on the Elise. The transmission is a Toyota C60. I don't like leaving the holes exposed when the axles come out, so I drew up and printed these plugs. They are 35mm across at the seal, same as the axles. When you get the axles out, put these in to keep dirt/dust, etc. out of the transmission.
These should fit the C50 (5 speed) trans as well, and probably a lot of other Toyota transmissions. Anything that has an axle with a 35mm area where the seal rides.
I printed them in ABS. OpenSCAD source included.
