Floppy lower glovebox handle - Boy Scout style 20min fix

Had some time off work so getting around to some of the niggles on the disco 3. Read a few long fixes for the lower glove box floppy handle and decided to give it a go. I'm no mechanic (as you can tell๐Ÿ˜‚) and this was easy.
1. Emptied lower glove box. 10mins ๐Ÿ˜ณ
2. Lowered the glovebox but left in situ. Didn't want to take it off completely.
3. Removed outer cover with plastic trim removal tool. Just pry it off, gentle working around the edges. It's only glued on so don't worry.
4. Used a little nylon string and fed itthroughy the floppy side of the handle and used a reef knot (Boy Scout style)
5. Checked the handle was as close to flush to the cover as possible.
6. Separated inside of cover with contact adhesive and stuck it back on.
7. Hurray, job done - have a beer ๐Ÿป
