    There should be a big round plastic pin in the glove box that has come out. It goes in the corner and it may be a bit hard getting the holes to line up.

    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

    The glovebox is basically 2 pieces of plastic, the outer and inner and are screwed together around the edges. Holden sells the inner part for about $35.
    All you have to do is put it together, then place it is position. The bottom left corner goes into a loop, whilst the right has the pin. Make sure you havent broken the loop off first.

    Yes check the loop that the glove box goes into,on the left.I payed under $20 for the glovebox piece and about $30 for the part that screws up into the dash.

    Yeah mine was broken too.Holden have em and they arnt too hard to replace.Be VERY careful fitting the glove box back in to the new loop part.Its a tight fit and mine sounded like it broke when mine popped in(crapped myself).Good luck with it.
