Default Glove box popping! I can't stand it anymore!

I remember others have the same problem. But I can't handle this anymore! My glove box pops evertime I do a 1-2 hard shift, launch, 2-3 hard shift. It happens even if I lock it! I recently found out that if I lock it, I can just still open it if I pull down on it with little effort. I cleared out my glovebox and it still does this. So it's not a weight problem? Anyone get this fixed? Or should I just tape up my glove box?

You can always adjust it.

I tried that. I unscrewed the 2 screws...adjusted it as best I can...tightened it. Still does the same. I'm thinking about trading gloveboxs with someone that has a good one and see if that works.

You can also adjust the metal bracket that it is attached too.

Why don't you just take it to your dealer?

I do, but I'm sure the cops aren't going to be fond of me going to my trunk to get papers and what not.

yeah mine pops out whenever i hit a bump on the freeway (since i'm semi lowered on stock shocks). its annoying. that and the top pops off of my air freshener which flies in some random direction. dangerous.

When I do drive agressive, I put my air freshners and other things on the passenger floor. But the glove box I just can't solve.

How do you adjust the bracket?
Just use a plier and bend the metal bracket downwards so it will clip into the glovebox better
