I did now know where I should post this, but the other day my cousin ripped open my glove compartment and broke the part that holds the door shut. It is the part that is inside the compartment under the dash. Will I have to replace the whole dash to fix this. My glove compartment has to stay open all the time now and it looks tacky.

Thanks.

 

i had the handle brake off like twice and i had that thing open too...it does look tacky

 

What did you end up doing about it?

 

i ended up having to screw my shut...where mine broke it looked like i woulda had to replace the whole dash prolly...thank god for the center consol lol

 

Which part broke?
The metal, squarish ring that the lock secures to or the lock itself?

 

Mine's messed up too. Wont close normally now but i slammed it shut and never opened it since and that was 2 months ago. Looks like the metal bar the lock holds onto is the problem and i want to know how to fix that as well.

 

It is the actaull metal peice on the inside. I can get a picture when I get off, I am at work right now.

 

Do you have any pics of where you screwed it shut. If it does not look that bad I may end up doing that.

Thanks.

 

If it is the striker that is attached to the dash, why not just replace it? It is held on by 2 screws.
