MG TD TF 1500 - TD Glovebox Stop

I'd ordered some parts from AS including a pair of glovebox hinges, a gasket for the ignition switch, a ball catch for the glovebox door & a glovebox door stop. They arrived a couple of days ago & I'm more than pleased with the quality. As I've never seen one before does anybody know how & where the stop is fitted? Cheers

Well, I can't say it is exactly as the factory did it, but mine is fitted on the upper portion of the glove box opening behind the ball catch.

Thanks Lew. Anybody have a pic of the original installation? Cheers

Center top. Sticks down about 1/8 to 3/16". Hard to see in this picture.

Christopher Couper

Thanks Chris. Is it fitted to the rear of the dash or the front of the sub dash? I'm guessing the former. (Odd looking glovebox. The oval back is very strange as is the fit at the front). Cheers

Here's another picture of the stop which may help.

Its fitted to the rear of the dash.

The box is a Moss repo from late 60's
