Morning
Here's an STL (change the suffix from .txt to .stl) for the T6's top middle button blank with a side slide-in cable slot. This is useful if you find yourself in the same situation as me, where I had to go direct with a USB cable from the head unit to the dash-mounted phone without passing through a USB socket (which the new generation of iPhones don't seem to like).
Go ahead and install your cable by leaving the OEM blank out - this blank can be fitted later without having to take everything apart. I refined the geometry of this and it snaps in beautifully and doesn't budge. Would recommend black PETG for the filament. PLA would probably work for a couple of years before it decays. If you're after a 100% match with finish, use a matt black spray layer over the top.
It's optimised for a USB cable diameter that measures 3.28mm when compressed slightly. If you're keen to get the right compression fitting, I used a Belkin Boost Charge Pro Flex cable.
Cura reports a missing polygon but it slices OK if you put the face pointing downward. I can't be bothered to find the missing polygon since it works.
Enjoy!
