#1 Cubby box catch; identify the part help please!

Post by Paul71a » Wed Apr 22, 2015 3:15 pm

My armrest/cubby box on my S2 has a nice fastener on the lid, but has nothing that "captures" it when lowered.

There are some fixing screws on the box front, but there's clearly some sort of catch missing.

Can anyone identify the part, post a photo or tell me what I'm looking for, please?

You're missing a box section which the attachment clips into:

I think most trimmers would be able to supply the necessary parts.
