glove box mechanism broke!!!!!
« on: 08 November 2006, 17:45 »
the mechanism has broke on my glove box, the part the holds it up and is connected to the handle. does anybody know how to strip it down? do i have to take the glovebox out???
i thought the tray bit would clip out some how without taking the glove box door off, but not sure how???
any help would be great as i have a piece of paper wedged in at the mo  :cry:

Common fault guys, the door is sealed and you will need a new one.

Did mine last year, you need part number 1J2 857 121 A
