Just a side project, but I took the A/C tube rubber rings that hold the clear rear deck vents and drew them up in SketchUp which is a free 3D modeling software.

Once done, I uploaded them to ShapeWays SharpWays to have them 3D printed in a strong/flexible black plastic, since rubber, silicone, or urethane was not an option. They also have other materials you can have things made in as well.

I didn't model the mounting holes, as I figure they then could be drilled to fit the application later.

I'll report back later to see if it was a successful endeavor, as I hope to use them to replace the petrified/cracker rubber ones that I have.
