Glove box misaligned. Are the hinges adjustable?
My glove box when closed, has a larger gap on the right vs the left and does not look quite right.
I realized that the latch can be adjusted, and this fixes the problem, but then you have to slam the glove box to get it closed.
Adjusting the right-side hinge (right-side when facing the glove box) would fix this. Does anyone know if it is adjustable and where the screw is?
Thanks

I have that gap too. I thought it was just me and maybe the previous owner bent the hindge or something. I never looked too deep into fixing it though but it is a little bit of an eye sore. GL finding the fix for it and post it on here so I can fix mine as well.

I never gave it too much thought either until a friend of mine noticed it and commented. If I get a chance today I'm going to drop the passenger side under panel and take a look for the hinges.

Yeah when someone else points something out then it gets to you more. Happened to me when I got a scratch on my tv screen it didnt really bother me from the angle I saw it at but anyone in the passenger side it was too obvious so I replaced it with a newer screen just cause of a scratch. haha.
