GM Coin Holder Bottom and Adapter for Honda Storage Bin by petropixel

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

This is a replacement bottom panel for the change holder found in the armrests of Buick Roadmasters and probably all other final-generation GM B-bodies (except Caprice 9C1 cop cars, Impala SS, and I guess any other models that didn't have bench seats?). I've wanted a change dispenser like this in my car for a while, and planned on making one that was 100% printed except for metal springs, but then I found this one in a junked Roadmaster. The guy at the junkyard let me keep it for free, possibly because they make more money on the other parts I was buying or possibly because the bottom clips are so brittle it's nearly impossible to remove the part without breaking them and it just looked like a mess of springs and broken plastic to him. I don't think the bottom breaking is a problem if you leave it in the armrest, but this could still be useful to someone else who wants to adapt it to another application.
The other part is the adapter that fits the coin holder into the dashboard pocket of a 1st-gen Honda Insight. This is probably useful to an even smaller circle of people, but you could use the models from the source file for boolean subtractions in making your own adapter.
