Ive noticed that nearly every pic I see of a UC interior, the gloxe box doesnt seem to close properly. Same with my UC.

Does anyone know how to fix this or has anyone done a mod to get them to close? Just thought I'd check before I nut this out on mine.

Cheers,

T

My old boys lock used to move around in the lid so he superglued it in place.

And another thing with them...some of the ones I have seen don't seem to be the same colour as the dash...or they don't fade at the same rate.

You just need to play around with the adjustments both on the stricker plate and the hinge screws either side.

Just undo the hinge screws and pull or push the glove door door to get the gap right. you can get it very close.
