Pins (hinges) for glovebox MK7

[Alex Ward]

Hi all,

While giving my car a clean, I noticed one of the hinges more my glovebox seems to have fallen out, which makes the glovebox feel a tiny bit loose.

Does anyone know the part for a replacement hinge/securing pin?

It looks like they're the pins here but I can't see any on their own online. 

Is this a common problem / is it easy to fix?

Thanks for your help.

They've done well to fall out. I removed them to fit my dash cam (twice😠) and they were a bit of a pain to pry out. There wasn't a chance my fingers could do it.

Had a quick look on microcat and you'll need part no. 1804235. However just had a look on eBay and it's near enough £14. Best bet would be go to a scrap yard/breakers yard. That yards that you remove bits yourself probably wouldn't even charge you for it as they appreciate you being honest rather than shoving it in your pocket. Shouldn't cost more than a couple quid at any other yard though.

Thanks for that Luke4efc, that's just what I was looking for! I'll see what I can find.
