Hinges for glove box

I have a ton of work to do on my truck (48 f2) but one thing that is bugging me now is the glove box flies open all the time because one of the hinges is broke.

Do the sell new hinges anywhere? Any ideas on a good substitute?

Is the hinge broken, or just the spring? You can get the springs here:
Classic Haulers F-1 Parts - Glove Box Hinge Spring

If you need a hinge, I don't know of any reproductions, but you could google it and maybe find something.

Edit: There is one on eBay that closes on Oct. 14, 2012.

It is the piece on the dash (not the door). I am not sure where the spring is (I need to go out and look at it again). I'll see if I can take a picture and post it.

I have two brackets. One with the spring and one without. PM or email me if you're interested.
