A couple of minor issues!
« on: 23 April 2009, 16:33 »
I have broken the glovebox lock off! Can it be fixed and if so how? no idea how to get into the glovebox to sort it out (its locked!)

Also the rear door lock is very stiff and I have to pull the button out everytime I open the boot. A good dose of WD40 or has it had it?

Thanks

ye, just got new handle on ebay for £6.98 inc delivery.

item number: 190299811832

He seems to have plenty left. then just swap over the lock so you don't need a new key  :smiley:

Sorted!
