functional so i can just pop it in.  I will pay for shipping + a modest

There are a bunch of 123s in the junkyard I go to, I could go get one 
from them if you want.  Probably wouldn't be much.

I recently replaced that inner plastic glove door piece. It's not that 
complicated. Just start taking it apart and photograph each step.

Actually, I think that you are going to have to take it apart anyway if you 
replace the whole door because the hinges attach to the door.  In order to 
detach them that plastic cover has to come off.

I've already detached the door and removed the plastic liner,  The problem
is that the metal latch has come apart from the plastic liner and I don't
know how to reattach it.

I just did that repair on my glovebox door. It broke at one point
recently, with the spring jumping the spring-stop. I bent the ends of the
spring to gouge into the spring stop and not slip over it. Works fine now,
but I do need to adjust the hinges where they mount to the dashboard
because the glovebox light stays on with the door closed.

It seems like the glovebox is one of the few flaws of the 123 diesel design.

Send a picture to the list to show us what you have. If we see it isn't
broken, we can advise on reassembly.
