I'm an idiot - need help with glovebox reassembly
 
I removed the lower knee strip to remove my glovebox (83 SC) so that I could reattach the leather covered faceplate. That all went swimmingly well and I now have a nice warp-free door. However, I got called off to do a family thing just as I was finishing the removal. Normally I'm methodical about taking photos of steps and especially hardware. I missed a couple on this one and now I'm stuck!

I removed the knee cap first so I think I have a handle on that. The glovebox door is attached to withstand a nuclear blast! I have two washers that are thicker and larger diameter than the others. About .8mm thick and swag at 10mm D. I have no idea where they came from. I suspect they came from the two outer door attachment points - where the threaded studs are attached to the hinge, not one of the screws. But my parts catalog does not show these larger washers but there are 2 and this is the only place I can justify where they belong! Help appreciated!

Glove Box, like having the roof up, is over rated. Good time to quit and get these from Rennline: DA66 and DA73 Dash-Rennline, Inc.

I got DA66 (in Black with the ignition hole) and DA73 (new product that replace the knee pads, in Black only) is on its way...

Both item are in one piece that covers the whole witdh of the dash.

I agree with the roof! But originality prevails on my Cab! Besides, my wife likes to keep a hair brush in there.

I think I got it sorted though - I put them on the studs as described above. Lid aligns perfectly.
