What keeps the lid down on the ash tray. Mine keeps opening. I don't understand the mechanism.

For a while, I thought about replacing my dashboard with one that had a glove box. Then I took the dashboard out for a different reason and realized it's not just replacing the dashboard. There's an aluminum brace that runs the length of the car behind the dash that would interfere with the glove box. I've not seen what the brace looks like in an 02-04, but it's definitely a different part.



I've come to the realization that the little storage space that the glove box provides really isn't necessary for me. I have storage in the doors, under the center armrest, behind the seats, and above the engine (I pulled off the owner's manual pocket under the steering wheel, it kept getting in the way of my knees). It all adds up to enough room for whatever I have in the car.
