| It was too dark when I got home tonight but where the latch pin holds into the plastic on my my OCC glove box door broke.
Can I remove that part or is it molded to the rest of the door? May have some junk yard time this weekend or not, not sure yet.... but driving around with the door open is a PITA for a passenger. | |

| Not sure I'm understanding exactly which part broke. But the latch does come off the glovebox door and can be swapped. | |

the pin that the latch is on, on the door side, the plastic around it broke making the pin pop up and thus changing the alingment of the latch so it no reachie the bar now. | |

| You need a new latch mechanism. You can unbolt it and bolt a replacement in its place. What color is it? I have a couple, but I do not know if I have one with a key. The lock should be able to be removed, but I have not figured out how to remove it. | |
