I opened the center cubby today to get out some CD cases. The door dropped down a little more than 45 degrees. I thought, "Huh? Didn't this door used to open almost flat? Or am I hallucinating?"
:roll:

The angled door is right. It does not open to flat. :wink: RPM

Not a flat openning door.

Speaking of the door...can anyone tell me how to get it out so I can get to the spring on the hinge?

I'm worried if I force it I'll break to hinge arm, but the spring inside is bouncing off of something and rattling like mad. I want to put some felt down, but need to know how to get at it.

Thanks!

Remove two knobs, then two screws. Pull off silver part of dash, then two screws on box. Comes out with the door attached.

I just had my center console apart this week to paint it. I don't think there were screws on the compartment with the flip-down door. But you don't have to take it out to fix the springs, at any rate.
