Re: Help- Can't get the glove box open

Old thread but I'm having the same problem. I've had the truck 10 years now and the original glove box door and push button intermittently worked sometime it would latch and sometimes when I hit a bump the door would flop down. Other times had a hell of time getting it to open but by pushing on the door and pushing the button sometimes it would open. After 3/4 years of that my buddy sold me a keyed one, and he might have got it from LockDoc but not 100% on that, and again worked intermittently and one time would not open after I locked it and thought the keyed lock was the problem so put the original back in and its been on and of working since. So I bought a chrome glove box door and painted the main part ( see picture) with wrinkle paint to match gauge surround and transferred the the original latch button to it. It did open again and sometimes had to fight it and lately it wont open and had a buddy in the passenger seat push and pull on it while I pushed the button but she won't open. From LockDoc post I'm thinking I got a button the was assembled back wards from the factory but if so why did the lock button act the same way. Does anyone know if it could be the non adjustable metal clip the button latches on to is not in the right place.
