Glove box

OK...Dumb question, (not my first),..... what holds the glove box door shut? My glove box appears to be in good shape..opens and closes fine, but wont stay shut... looks like the guy before tried to rig some kind of catch on the back of the ****, but that doesn't appear to be right or have anywhere to latch? I see springs in the LMC catalog but there are none on my truck ?...… thanks, Dave...… oh '62 F100.....

Here you go. Truck Parts and Truck Accessories


You will have to get the liner out of the way to put them in. If those springs are in good shape that door will close faster than a rat trap if you don't have a good hold on it.
