im not sure if this is the right place to ask, but im thinking of buying a Series II VT Commodore, the only issue is the glovebox is broken, it sits in fine but once you try to open it it falls off, any ideas of replacing it? costs involved? thanks in advance
theres a pin that holds it in. look to see if its there
When fixing my car i had a broken one also, I bought one from the wreckers, And had my repairer do it, I just couldn't come to terms with doing it, I found it to hard.
And yet i have replaced most of my dash myself, And that stuffed me up.

I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.
i had the same problem its a rubber knob thing.take the glove box out and you should notice a rubber thing missing on the right side
The glovebox is two pieces screwed into one,if pins are broken then buy a new one and replace it,its that simple.
If its broken where it fits into the dash then that part is avail too.It takes a bit of work to change but far from difficult.Both those parts i mentioned will cost you about $50 from Holden.I needed to replace them when i got my VT,just be careful refitting the glovebox as the pins are fragile.
