What if you want to remove the lock? How's that come out?

QUOTE(76-914 @ Oct 5 2014, 08:10 PM)  Where are the "Money Shots"? The ones showing the springs being attached. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) I tried for weeks last year. Again this year. I can't get the damn springs in to save my life. I prefer them in because I like how the door closes with them. But I can't do it. Lord knows I've tried. Over... And over... And over...

Pull the radio get in there. If you need extra space take the side bolt off. You can do it!

Just did this yesterday. The springs are a real pain. Left side is much easier to get at through the radio opening. If you loosen the lower dash and let it hang down you can then remove the vent box and get better access to the spring on the outside.
I had a hard time getting the 8mm nut started as it was sitting too far down in my socket. I took some two sided foam tape and suck it to the end of my socket extension to get is started. Once threaded on just pull the tape off and finish tightening with socket. Not fun but not hard. |

I NEED TO DO THIS. I actually damaged one side of the box trying to pry it out. Can't decide if I need to replace it first before re-install.....
THANKS for all the pics and tips (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Has someone ever made a replacement fiberglass or plastic glovebox? Seems like a perfect project for 914Rubber or 914ap...
