Is there a trick to reinstall the glovebox hinge in a 1971 Cutlass Supreme? I took everything out so the audio place could install an original radio. It’s driving me crazy!
I don't know the answer to your question, but I wonder why you removed theglove box door to aaccess the radio? In the past 40 years I have installed multiple radios in my '70 and '71 Cutlasses and never even considered removing the glove box door. Everything is accessible from under the dash directly below the radio.
I don't know if yours would be the same as on a 69 but it may be. The first time I took mine apart I had a similar experience. The lower left detail shows how the hinge sits with the glovebox. I hope this helps. This is out of the Assembly Manual. If you don't have one Hairy OLds sells the best copies out there. The others are incomplete and unreadable. Steve
