Brief Description:  InstrumentPanel 5 - Glove Box 3

Finished up the glovebox fitting by updrilling all the pilot holes to final rivet size (A4). I then reassembled the glovebox with the back end removed so I could feed the two nylon doorstops through from the back. With the door closed (but not latched), I manually adjusted each door stop until the door rested against them in the desired position. Then I carefully clamped them in place and match-drilled them through two pilot holes (each) on the top-front of the glovebox. Once the doorstop fitting was complete, I updrilled them to final rivet size.

Then I disassembled the glovebox one last time, deburred all the rivet holes and edges, sanded the edges and paint regions then painted those metal surfaces that will contact other metal surfaces when riveted.
