    u need some bolts, a piece of plastic pipe and a few cable ties.
    hack something together that swings on the right and holds weight on the top and youll be good.

    I found this in my seach and didn`t want to start a new thread.
    I findly found my rattle it is the glove box lock it`s loose and the only thing I can think of is to make shims out of a plastic milk bottle to tighten it up.
    Ideas please.

    have you tried other wreckers (I assume you have?)..also there is always someone trying to sell some items on the site. I would try that. I just purchased a glove box off this site

    Well I when with the plastic milk bottle.
    Cut out shim like the U shaped clip but it was to thick I couldn`t get the clip on.
    So I cut one side off so it was a L shape the lock is tight as and no rattle.
