[TR] TR4 glove box door

While my glove box door (on the TR4A with wood dash) doesn't drop down while
driving, the latch mechanism really isn't holding it in place and I can open
the door without pushing the button.  I too would like to hear experiences in
fixing this.

The glove box door on my TR4 keeps popping open while driving.  I've looked at
the parts books to see if there is supposed be any sort of adjustable bracket
or plate that might be missing and none are indicated.

The sheet metal lip does not look to be bent or deformed and the tip of the
latch mechanism doesn't seem to be worn.  My only assumption is that over
there years there has been enough tweaking and twisting going on that there
just isn't enough contact between the latch and the metal tab.

Anyone have a been there done that solution?

Thanks!

Brad
