    Hi,

    I have a G2NMI2005-01 center armrest as described here:

    Mini Cooper Armrest Oem With Storage R50 R52 R53 R

    The tab on the top lid broke off, so now the top won't stay latched down (meaning it can pop up as you lift your arm).

    Anyone see these before? Thoughts?

    Thanks !

    If it were mine I would glue a strong magnet to the inside front edge and attach a small steel plate to the lid. Experiment a little to get the right line up. If you wanted you could use 3M spray adhesive and a little model RR flocking to make the magnet look better.
