    Annoyingly the glovebox pops open when I go over bumps. I'm assuming the catch just needs adjusting? Anyone done this before? Is it easfy?

    Thanks

    Mine did the same. Yes I managed to adjust the latch. But it was not that easy from memory.

    I had to replace the latching mechanism. Found a used one for ~$300. New ones are $800 lol

    I haven't had this problem (yet) but, as I don't use it much, I just keep it locked, which could help you in the short term.

    Cheers

    I had the same problem, simple adjustment took about 5 minutes to get it just right but is was 4 years ago so I dont remember how I did it.

    Managed to sort this over the weekend. I removed the glove box lid and found that the lock was actually bent. I straightened it up again and that solved it!

    Thanks everyone for the comments.
