Can get from the wreckers for cheap (~$30) but apparently it's a real hassle to change over, you need to drop the roof lining etc to get to the bracket to swap them over...

yeah, mine too...the spring(or whatever) that holds the latch shut is stuffed. I have to push it closed, not just let it go.

I don't keep anything special in there anyway - my dad used to have an AU (traded to a BA 'bout 2 years ago) and he kept his motorcharge card in there...the card melted - warped pretty severely- he had to get a new one.
Too hot that close to the roof i guess.

00 Forte (S2) and mine has one. Don't use it though. It feels a little loose and shonky so it's always closed
