7. Fasten the Glovebox to the frame through these two new holes with the 10-32 x 1/2 screws, nuts,
and washers.
8. Enable the door stop by partially closing the glovebox and then adjusting the height of the
doorstop so that it will hit the back of the new lock catch preventing it from opening all the way
then tighten the wingnuts.
9. Check the lock operation. If it appears that there is a large gap between the lid and the frame first
check to make sure all the screws around the new latch mount are fully tightened including the
hardware in the two drilled holes. If there is still a gap most likely there is a slight variance in the
angle of the mounting frame in the Jeep dash which can effect the new latch mount location. In
this case an adjustable wrench can be used to bend either the mounting surface on the Jeep dash
frame or the new latch mount to compensate for the variance and tighten the fit.
ATTENTION:
FREQUENT LUBRICATION IS NECESSARY ON THE LOCKING SYSTEM
The pushbutton lock contains an “O” ring seal to protect the interior from dust and water. If this
mechanism is not lubricated regularly it will become difficult to operate and it may not return to its
home position preventing the key from operating the lock. If this happens simply pull up on the
pushbutton to manually bring it back to its home position. Lubricate the pushbutton with a light
lubricant such as silicone spray. The pushbutton may have to be periodically disassembled and
cleaned.
