Help! My glove box lid keeps popping open when driving...very annoying...all parts seem to be in good condition. Is there a hack to fix this??
 
you should be able to adjust the lock catch

Hi, is the bottom catch a piece of stamped wire or is it a catch like davek posted? Check spring tension if its the catch. Also davek is correct, you can adjust it or shim if necessary.
 
Looks just like the picture... interestingly, when at a stand still, you can't grab the lid and get it to pop open...only driving does it do it... spring seems to work fine

Just needs shimming. My old Road Runner with a stick and traction bars would pop it open on launch. Fixed it with shimming and adjustments.
