I need to print a discontinued part for my car, I have an .stl file for the part, I just don’t have a 3D printer. It’s a speaker mount.
What online print service have you used that you can recommend? Thank you!

Is buying a 3d printer cost prohibitive? If not, this might be your time. Even if you tell yourself this is probably the only time you’ll ever need anything 3d printed, I bet you’ll find yourself printing all kinds of stuff. I think every household should have a 3d printer. You can geek out with them for sure just like you can with cars or brewing coffee, but they can also be useful and fun for everyday users like coffee and cars too. Nerd level knowledge is no longer necessary for entry.
Unfortunately a 3D printer is not in my budget. I could afford one, but it would come at the expense of some upcoming costs I have to account for. Maybe in the future when I have a better living situation it would happen! I have always wanted one. It would be fun to mess around with.
Don’t buy anything you can’t afford. Sounds like you already got that part right. :)
If so good 3D-printer are lower cost than ever. Sure you could pick up an used Ender 3 and the like for $50 and put in the elbow grease to learn like it was done in the old days. Alternative is spending $200 on an BambuLab A1 and skip most of the learning curve.
If you can handle frustration than a cheapo used printer could be a good option. Please ask before purchasing as not every $50 printer is a good deal/option and as a newbie you can’t distinguish the good from the bad.
