Glove Box woes
I think this has been raised before, but I cannot seem to pull anything up in a search.
So my 96' 850's glove box is shut & will not open for love nor money. I've tried 'jiggleing' it with various screwdrivers with no joy & also fear busting something if I go at it too forcefully. I guess something has fallen to bits within the release mechanism, but it's not making itself obvious just yet. The release 'lever' moves as normal, it just will not 'let go' Thanks in advance.

Had a go but made it worse!
Excellent information on those threads
Sadly I'm a ham-fisted numpty Following the instructions numptynessI got as far as drilling the little hole for the self-tapper to go through to replace the snapped actuator, but I managed to snap the other part on the release mechanism whilst doing it. So I shall now be going for the stick on Velcro method of holding it shut, until I can get to a scrappy LOL! Oh well, I tried!
