Review on DEWHEL Replacement Compartment 8E1880302B 8E1857124A24A by James Wiley

Revainrating 4 out of 5

IS WORKING! MINOR MODIFICATION REQUIRED

Worked well with a little modification. My glove box hinge was completely broken. As previously mentioned, the holes in the bracket are not countersunk and the screws protrude too far, preventing the door from opening and closing properly. I used my dremel to narrow the screw holes; but even that didn't provide enough clearance as the screws were almost flush. A simpler solution is to simply notch the glove box itself. You'll never see that area, and it took about 30 seconds to change mounts, compared to 10 minutes; which also ruins the optics. I used JB Weld as the epoxy and it seems quite strong. So yes, this seems like a good cheap solution for a few bucks. Some modifications required; and 45-1 hour time.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • I don't have much to complain about, everything is fine
