Glove box hinge

[mr_arc]

So I'm sorting out the niggly bits with the Clio, some bright spark has bust the plastic hinge the runs the full width of the lid. I've had a look and seen that it's a pretty poor design, and is just a thin bit of plastic that is rivetted onto the bottom of the dash.

I can see the only way to fix it is to drill out the rivets, find a donor car, drill out the rivets and remove the glovebox/hinge all at once. Then either rivet / self tap it onto my car.

Do glovebox lids come up for sale often, are there any better fixes?

You sure it's bust? None of them line up properly.

It's bust, I can remove the lid by unhooking it from the two larger hinges. I can see where the plastic is meant to have been joined.

Oh right as you said will need rivets drilling out and new one putting in.
