Title: Glovebox handle
Post by: Arrolman on 16 March 2009, 19:53:34

Hi,

Just pulled the ramains of my old handle off, got new one ready to go in, looks like it should just push straight in? No! Can get it in on one side, but not the other. I've read the how 2 and I know it says to strip the box out but is there any way of fitting it without doing this? Seems as though its just not sitting quite flush?

Cheers,
Iain
