Part # 38-5216 (without A/C)

There's a liner with A/C and without A/C... make sure you get the right one.

Honestly, I would be more surprised if you came here to tell us that your original glove box hinge was still functional! GM made a piss poor design choice on that particular part.

There's also people out there who have successfully used a piano hinge in place of the stock one. It takes some fancy placement because it binds up the box, but it's possible as long as you have enough hing material left on the box liner.

If your not over concerned with the look, grab a piano hinge from local hardware and install. Had this on mine for a while
