2011 Dispatch Glovebox Hinge Repair

So I recently brought a 2011 Dispatch and have done a few repairs already (Cambelt, Alternator and Battery)

The glovebox hinge is damaged so when you open it, its kinda flops around.

My question is:

1. Is it repairable or replaceable.
2. Does anyone have one?

Re: 2011 Dispatch Glovebox Hinge Repair

Replying late, as I just had the same issue.

It's fiddly to remove the glove box lid(I documented how somewhere here in the last few days) but it only took maybe 10 mins, including finding the right Torx bit.

1. I wouldn't call it repairable, but it's bodgeable. I used JB Weld epoxy putty suitable for plastics (because that's what I had) to stick a strip of cloth where the broken 'hinge' had been.

2. I searched high and low, but couldn't find a spare lid. That's why I bodged it :-)

My bodge is holding up so far, but we're being gentle with it

In our new to us 2013 expert someone has made a brilliant job of replacing the hinges on the glove box with proper hinges
