Fixing the dreaded broken Ashtray door on a fox body

here is how to fix it permanently.



Cut a small piece of sheet metal with tin snips to the size needed, and round the one end off. then epoxy it to the broken tab where the spring came through. once that cures, take a 1/16" drill bit and drill a hole where the stock hole would be. put the spring back in properly and she is done.
