Glovebox Lock / Handle Broken

[aerojamesz4]

Hey guys,

I broke my glovebox handle / lock a while ago due to those two little pins coming out. I have since lost these and damaged the lock so I was wondering if I could get the part number for this. I checked on realoem and in Australia its going to cost me $210 for the part (part number 51167149237) is this the correct part? Is there anywhere I can buy a second hand one of these?

Thanks

I just purchased a new glovebox door.. How do I go about installing it now?
