They are a bit squished, I'll go out to the car tomorrow with some calipers and try to get all those measurements. I wouldn't worry too much about my very large water bottle, I suppose quite a lot of people may have bottles that big though, for reference the hole I cut out in slicer was more of...

Yep I was trying to print at about half of what I print PLA at (which is about 250, so I was trying 120) and that didn't go too well; second (rear) half printed much better as you can see and that was at 80mm/s, but I messed up with retraction and lowered it too much (evidently 0.4 was nowhere...

Printed! Generally fine, arguably not wide enough; but i looked and it fits the rubber mat in the bottom of that area so not sure what could be done about that really. Only other issue is that where the lip is for the change in height is too far forward so not perfectly stable, but drinks...

I would just cut holes out like this in the slicer using the negative shape primitives.

Brilliant, I'll probably get some PETG this week and give it a shot, just a case of working out the least crazy print orientation now (probably just intended orientation with support)

Didn't realise prusaslicer let me do that -- never had to cut a model before -- good to know. Yeah, I was thinking something like that but couldn't think of a decent way to do that in-slicer and retain the (mostly proper) geometry.

Any chance of getting the F360 file, or if you could make a variant without the bucket at the front? Just a little large for my printer thats all.

There are some generic additional car cupholders on Amazon/AliExpress but I don't know how well they would stick down inside the slide covered area. Maybe a 3d printed frame around one of these products to make them better fit inside could work.

How did you get the update? At the dealer or OTA?

In the car go to settings->voice and turn off "Hello MG".

Definitely much quicker on my car (currently on R33), as mentioned above I'd try holding home for 10 sec but ultimately you're going to want to pester your dealer for at least R33 and preferable R46

As far as I know purely infotainment upgrades are just done with a usb stick, however as for anyone other than a dealer getting access to those files -- absolutely not.

Will be intersting to know what Halesworth think (since I use them for my updates too). Couple weeks ago I asked about R46 (just after the first mention of it here) and they hadn't heard anything yet but have said they'll let me know when any updates are available.

Infotainment update alone -- I doubt it, but combine that with some module updates and maybe? Couple people on the facebook group say their dealers have informed them it can be done as an update on cars and one has theirs booked in on the 25th for it... will be interesting to see the outcome for...

How on earth did you figure that one out!?! Works perfectly now (though, I did have to make sure I turned that setting off while my phone was plugged in it seems)
