Your glove box sag was caused by removing the glovebox from the air vent panel and not getting the hooks properly aligned or breaking them when reinstalling. To prevent this, you should always remove the glove box and air vent panel AS A SINGLE UNIT.

How do you know that? My glovebox has never been removed and sags due to age.

This is not necessarily the case. I'm the original owner of a 98 M3/4 It came with the glovebox slightly sagging. I also owned a '93 E36 325i before that and it too had a slightly sagging glovebox from the factory. It was never perfect. The door also starts to delaminate with age and the weight of it also pulls the frame of the glovebox opening away a little bit over time

The glovebox on my 1999 e36 M3 was fuhhhhhked up, lol. When restoring the car, I ended up buying 3 different gloveboxes just to make one good one. I used this technique to make it perfect. It works but follow the directions to the letter.

Did you watch the video? I don’t understand. Did you not think you would have two screws? Either use rivets or paint them to match.

its odd anything changes if you just drill and screw what already in place an causing a problem. You demonstrate that down pressure is required to close the gap, then just drill and screw anyway. Its hard to understand how that changes anything

You should chamfer the hole so the screw head is flush with the surface. It will look alot less of a hack job otherwise good job.

Tony Montana Countersink? Notice in the video I say not to do that because there isn’t enough material. You risk burning through it! Risky move. If you want to try it, be my guest. But I’d rather be safe and teach others to be safe rather than having people be upset they just blew a hole through their dash.

@@MasteringHow-To I must have missed that part. I agree then, if it's too thin then avoid the chamfer. Cheers.

Hmm. Wish I could see what was going on. I’m not sure. Maybe back the screws out a little? See if that helps? Let me know

Push hard on the door. Will it close when you do that? And did it seal before?
@orizo63023 жыл бұрын
before i tried this it would latch. after however it would just fall back down after pushing at any pressure. I tried backing out the screws a little which worked, but it would start to sag, and got a little touchy. considering buying a used assembly and switching out the lock.

Not sure. High chance the new one will do it too... they don’t make these anymore. So most likely the new box will have the issue. You could try to find one at a junk yard... but chances are taking it all apart in the process will break some clips
