Glovebox problems
« on: 04 September 2009, 15:49:16 »
Hello all
my glovebox lock had had his chips basically, the catch just "came off in my hand" so to speak.
Unfortunately my stereo face plate and Cd's are  still inside, does anybody have any helpful suggestions please.
Cheers

If you run 2 butter knives gently down each edge you should be able to carefully push the tabs in if the mechanism in the hole isn't working :y
