I'm wondering how to finagle my repro cardboard glovebox liner into my Charger--without damaging it. I can get the left-side flap over the fuse block and get it jammed in about halfway but it's fighting me all the way just to get to that point and starting to bend & deform. Got any tips? Slide in from the left or right side, top or bottom or some other trick? Feel free to share how you got yours installed! Thanks guys.

It’s been a few years but I recall mine going in quite easily. Can you see what the obstruction is?

You do need to carefully crush the back corners....take it easy though - too much and the creases are permanent. Just work away at it slowly.

Sliding the right-hand side in first on the left-hand side of the opening helps....pushing the box to the right.

I have done two that way on '70 GTX and RR. :)

No, it is not easy.
It takes some pushing, twisting and folding a bit. If you get it in place without deforming it at all, you are doing better than me.
