    I'm putting the glovebox together...are the little rubber glovebox door bumpers something that should be available locally?

    Oh - and I thought I knew what the two studs (not the ones for the latch) were for on the inside of the door, but now I don't recall.

    The two studs are for the arm that keeps the lid from falling down. It has a catch so the lid stays horizontal. Walcks' has the bumpers if you can't find them or something similar locally.

    Oh - I just went and bought some run of the mill plastic 1/4" round bumpers with the screw through the middle.

    They were $1.25 for 4 at FLHS - figured it was cheaper than the shipping on the "correct" bumpers, and you don't see them 'cept for when the glovebox is down...;)
