Thanks Bud, I was looking at these however I have a double din radio which I want to fit and the "side trimmings" will close the gaps perfectly.amstel18 wrote:Not necessary to 3d print.

Re: Citi Golf Radio Trim - 3D Print
3d printing is kind of weak bud. Maybe theres different qualities of material u can use, im not sure..
I have bought a 3d printed boost gauge pod for my polo, it looks cool when its new. A few weeks later it started to warp (heat takes a toll even though i dont park the car in the sun) and it now looks terrible (well in my eye)..

When a car tailgates me, i slow down - then floor it and give them a cloud of diesel smoke to choke on

Aha you should of mentioned it. Well give the local sound shops a call to hear if they have any for a new spec citi golf .
Otherwise, use a Dremel and cut the one in the link I sent...

Re: Citi Golf Radio Trim - 3D Print
Sounds like it might just be easier to buy the trimmings or like @Amstel mentioned just buy the single din and Dremel it. Will see what I come up with, If I manage to get the measurements I will give the 3d printing a try I know there are different types of plastic that can be used and seems ABS plastic should do the job.

What plastic quality does it have in there actually?
