[QUOTE="garyahouse, post: 1323400, member: 20946"] Funny just how many ways there are to "gitterdone." My locking mechanism stopped working years ago. I remember looking at it and thinking that I honestly don't need a locking glove box anyway. But I did need for the dumb thing to at least open and close. I simply filed my latch a little until it would pop open with a little pressure. I haven't had any problems with it since I did the modification. I don't recommend that anybody else do this, as it's certainly not a repair. But it worked out fine for me: problem solved. Ha: I loved this one from Ionbeam above: "I recently replaced my glove box again and this time it came with an entire '15 ES attached [IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/wink.png[/IMG]" ---no place like this place.
