Glove box door hinge brackets

[Tapper02]

These are takeoff brackets for the glove box door hinges.  Is this angle correct?  The hinge pins only partially insert...is that really how they work?  How does the door stay in place?

They should be 90 degrees, Tom. I suspect someone may have bent them over to remove the door rather than unscrew them.

Thanks Jon...appreciate it!  I'm going to try and re-use these...hope they stand being bent back to 90 degrees!

Use a little heat to bend back as cold will crack

Thanks Mike...good point!
