I’m a 3D printing enthusiast and can say with certainty it’s not worth it either, maybe for your own vehicle you’re fixing yourself you might go that route, but the liability problems in making your own parts makes it not worth it, if a DIY part breaks that’s on you, if a OEM part breaks it’s not. Too many people that advocate 3D printing replacements for stuff in a situation like this don’t consider liability, also the time needed to measure the part, CAD the part and then print the part, if that takes more than minutes it’s cheaper to just order the part.
it’ll be depressing when all 90s and 2000s cars are gone and we have to live with these garbage modern day cars
I am wondering what the alternative to this problem would b?? I mean if there is no more of the lever system and with these newer models I think is computers so the only thing I can think of would be not to get rear AC and just roll down my windows but that’s presents a problem with the heat system if it ever had an issue or needed maintenance.
Ok. So what manufacturer has the best parts and access to theses areas of repair, those are your better choices to buy. Probably, honda, toyota
WIZARD Thanks so much for your show. I’m 65 and although I never worked on my cars much I do now. My 1999 Riviera appreciates you even more than I do.
