so my kid pulled the handle to open my glove box and i guess he pulled too hard and it just ripped off..is there a fix for that?

i tried searching but only broken hinges came up

thanks

same problem with mine...i just leave it shut..but if you need it opened pop off the side and push in the little black clip and itll release

thats what i do, but i would like to fix it without paying 400 for a new glove box door

Theres a small screw on the side of the latch that will release your locking mechanism from the handle which is also only one screw to remove, you'll probly need to get the handle from the dealer but this is a VERY VERY EASY CHANGE!!! I had to swap everything around when i installed my new glovebox, just look carefully for the two screws, you'll figure it out..
