Spider glove box lock

Post by dino176 »

Hi
I am missing my locking mechanism for the glove box: I do have the lock, but the pin that should preventive glove box from being opened is missing.
Does anybody have a picture of this locking pin ?

Hi dino176,
For what it's worth, I didn't have one of the little levers on the back to make it work either. I wound up buying a Fiat 124 trunk lock from Mr.Fiat (80 bucks, ouch!) but the assembly looks exactly like the one on our glove boxes, and after some beating and bending on the included pin on the back, it works after a fashion. Not perfect or cheap, but it is quite cosmetically acceptable and works about as well as the crude little assembly probably ever does! I hope this helps. I needed a key anyway in my case, and they also come along with the lock.
Good luck with your car!
