LEXUS RX350 Rear Door Latch Cover
Shared by
3DPrintedCarPartDescription
The plastic hatch-door latch-cover on my model year 2007 Lexus RX350 broke so I designed this 3D Printed replacement. It fits well and solved my problem. It uses all of the original mounting parts (axle, spring, etc) and has the same spring action of the OEM component. Although I designed it by extracting dimensions from the old part (model year 2007), It is likely to be usable for many model years before and after as well. If you need one, take a look at the dimensioned drawing and compare it to your part. It just might fit! I printed the part using PETG (not PLA!) so that it had the resilience and higher temperature stability required for this applicaiton. Unfortunately, the GREY PETG filament I used is many shades darker that the light grey of the original part, but "close enough" for me. One could always paint it as needed, but I suspect opening and closing the door will cause paint wear.
