Summary

Project: Custom USB Port Panel — Physical Part Modification I'm mailing you a small glossy black plastic automotive dash blank that already fits flush in its mounting location. I need it modified to incorporate one or two USB-C ports on its front face. What I need: One USB-C port minimum, two preferred if structurally workable Ports must sit flush or very slightly recessed — not protruding Front port will be plugged/unplugged several times weekly — needs to be solid, no wobble Rear port (if two) is semi-permanent once installed — still needs firm seating Finished piece must fit its mounting location exactly as the original does The job itself is conceptually simple but requires a careful, skilled hand — the blank is small, the tolerances matter, and the finish needs to remain clean. This isn't complex engineering, just precise craftsmanship. Regarding 3D printing: I'd like a small 3D printed housing designed to hold the USB-C ports securely within the blank — essentially a snug bracket the ports snap or press into, which then mounts cleanly to the back of the blank. This avoids epoxying directly to the port metal and gives a proper stable mounting point. Housing material should be heat-tolerant (PETG preferred). Important: Please modify the original blank rather than reprint — the highly glossy black finish is not replicable via 3D printing. What I'm mailing: The original blank Two USB-C cables — ports can be harvested directly from these Timeline: No rush — quality over speed. If unable to complete: Please return all mailed components unused.
