How to fix centre console latch.

[dilmah]

Awesome work! Finally it closes properly again

Mine didn't have any broken bits inside, but was missing the spring altogether.

Get the biggest pin you can find. Probably like a nappy pin (if anyone uses old school cloth nappies anymore lol).

Take careful note of that last pic. I found that the pin needs to go exactly where shown for it to work properly (i.e don't put it between the two plastic bits sticking out) as it forces the pin out of place when putting the lid back together if you do.

Nice writeup!

I just found this thread about ten minutes ago and already ive got my console lid out and pulled apart.

Just need a safety pin now, that might take a little longer

How is this not a sticky ???

Thanks Thommo -- Six years after it was written, its still helping people. Good Work
