I've been working on some 3D modeling recently and researching companies that produce parts from your models. While eating dinner, it popped into my mind that the wire loom is a pretty simple part, but I believe I remember reading that the Opel wire loom is no longer in production and a hard to find part. Sometimes it's the small details that you really want for a car and cannot find anymore. I'm pretty sure I can create a 3D model of this part within 90% accuracy and it wouldn't cost too much to make, all things considered. There is information I would need, or someone would need to loan me one of these wire looms so I can get the dimensions myself. Attached is the first set of dimensions I need to start this but there will be followup questions. Thank you in advance.
In millimeters please...(if you have a digital caliper, that would give the best measurements)
A - overall length
B - overall width
C - Wires In Length
D - First Slant Length
E - First Support Length
F - Second Support Length
G - Third Support Length
H - Top Length
I - Forward Slant Length
J - Wire Out Slant Length
K - Box Inside Width (exterior detail, use the average shape)
L - Box Inside Length (exterior detail, use the average shape)
M - Rib Thickness (exterior detail)
I could also use a bunch of various pictures detailing the external design features / details and internal design features / details. How is the wire loom secured to the engine? How does the wire loom remain closed? What is the diameter of the wire holes? Or dimensions of internal wire boxes? What material is the wire loom made out of, at least approximately?
The more detail I can get about this part, the better I'll be able to replicate it. Once I've finished the design of a replacement wire loom, it should be available to everyone as long as it doesn't cost too much.
