I'm happy to print a bunch for you but I'm in Amsterdam so shipping will cost you your first born.
That is very kind of you. I was thinking that you might have some interest on the forum. I have never seen nor heard of luminous tyre valves and it seems really interesting. I have never even thought of looking into a printing machine of that sort. I guess that imagination plays is an important part in design.

Indeed. For me it is the other way around. I have this cool printer, a fun premium filament and I was looking for a small print to try.
Originally I bought this filament to make a glow in the dark label for the overhead light switch in the cabin. I'm always confused which one to push in the dark.

That is a good idea. I only need glasses for reading in poor light but do have a slight problem occasionally with vehicle switches. Our T6 Caravelle Exec 4Motion with D/L switch gear is not laid out in the most useful or logical way for me. Their are certain switches that I use for off road use, things like Differential Lock, D/L, Traction Control System TCS, very soon to have Hill Dissent Assist, HDA, Exterior mirror fold and the switch to defeat the engine turn off when stopped. These are normally secondary switches one's is not used all of the time and if travelling off road in the dark or poor lights with the main lights off they do not standout. A bit of a pain for me. I probably just need fluorescent tape cutting to make a mark on or near to the switch not necessarily printed words. Your post has served as a prompt to me, that Fluorescent Tape if such a thing exists might make switch recognition faster. The same might be for the anti fog screen blower.
They will be off and on some bmx by fhe end of the week lolI printed some glow in the dark valve caps. Will have to see if I keep them but they look fun here on the table

Is that bambu labs glow in the dark? That stuff works amazingly well
Today I had an inspection service at the pitstop @ transporter junction ... always thorough and good value here. I'm happy to support, and recommend, a young lad making his way in the world, growing his business, and loving transporters!

Fill 3D PLA Glow In The Dark 0,5 kg
Our own brand filament, Fill 3D PLA Glow In The Dark 0.5 kg, is a high-quality all-round PLA filament that is easy to print. New and improved recipe for the best effect!

Also I guess the BMX attraction will only be worse if I add a VW logo to the top
I finally plucked up the courage on the weekend to strip the lower dash section which enabled me to change the DSG gear lever section as I broke the white loft up centre section when attempting to change the gear cover. I decided to cut my losses and buy the caravelle version instead.
I also managed to fit Stan the man’s footwell lights, which I have to say are impressively well made.

Broke one of the top brake lights while power washing the van so bought smoke black replacements. Hopefully they actually work, waiting on the other half to finish work so she can confirm lol Edit: this was Tuesday night, the post didn't upload. The lights also work
Same question from me, I did the same and mine fitted really badly. Still left them on but they almost had to be pulled into shape with the screws
Nice
You have a lower dash trim missing
Ooh which one? Any pics. News to me lol
