Glovebox not closing C209

[smeg reddwarf]

I can no longer close my glove-box and not sure why i have taken a photo. has a bit broken off (I'm assuming)?

Anyone know any good websites for getting parts like this or is it off to the main dealer. trouble is it's a 30 mile drive to our nearest one. Don't MB supply parts by post.

Thanks for any help

Its a common fault for the glove box catch to break, mercedes only sell the whole glove box I do believe, ur best bet is to get the part from a breakers yard

The hook looks like it's still there. What you need to do is adjust the clasp on the dashboard side. So if you look up at the clasp/hook thing there is a torx screw to adjust it in and out. Loosen the screw, bring the clasp out and this will make it easier for the latch to close.

That little bottom bit broken doesn't matter

Yep adjustment to the hook worked.
