This is an x-post from 'What did you do today...'
Seems the old plastic on the speaker grill doesn't take too well to over-tightening. A search for OEM replacement came up empty. So I designed a much more beefy replacement.
From the pic, you can see it sticks out pretty far. I've since cut off about 5mm in the model. Notice the flat, shiny surface. That's intentional. While there are 3D printers out there that can print in any orientation, most of the consumer/reprap printers print best if there is a flat surface to start with. I'm happy with how it turned out. I could get pretty creative with the grill cutouts and may do that in the future.
The thicker plastic made speaker installation very easy.
