If you own a Ford Galaxy and your armrest broke off the hinge - this is a thing for you!
How to fix your armrest:
- unscrew the armrest from the hinge (a bit tricky, not much space there for the tools)
- print the thing
- make sure the "front" mounts of your armrest are ok and can be still serve the purpose
- on the inside of the armrest - cut out the broken mounting deck making place for the printed thing - but leave the sides in place, becase you want to
- mount the original screw fasteners onto the printed thing (those two yellow pieces on to which the screws go), they snap in place nicely and are correctly positioned by the holes in the thing
- adjust the cut out if needed
- make sure that holes are aligned when everything is placed together
- secure the printed thing to the armrest with a dualsided duck tape and then drill out holes for screws to secure the thing in place
- assemble the armrest together and fix it to the hinge in the car (if your original bolts broke off like mine, you can use sheet metal screws of similar size)
