Hi,
Underneath the glove box the cover came off. I put the cover back on but it keeps coming off while driving.
there's a metal bar with 3 holes that goes at the top/behind of the cover. I got the 3 black circle push fittings. Is there any fittings missing or have I got everything I need?
If i got all the fittings then why does the cover come off while driving?
Its a 2006 1.4 peugeot 206
Thanks,

I don't have this sound proofing on mine, but if it's anything like other cars and it's fabric, then it becomes saggy over time.
It doesn't look like there is much more than those 2 mushroom clips at the front and one hog ring at the back that holds it in place. Might just be a case of live with it or try and gaffer tape it in place from the underside of it so the tape is hidden.
Someone is bound to ask where you get it and how much so here is the part numbers and prices.

Isn't there an unofficial recall for these to be fitted to earlier 206 to stop passengers feet interfering with the brake linkage?

yeah its fabric at the front of the cover. I tried gaffer tape but the bloody thing keeps coming off.
you mean mushroom clips on the metal bar?
diagram 74 and 75 state they are both hog rings but they look different?

All the photos I have are the ones from servicebox. Since there are only 2 mushroom clips listed and you have 3 holes, possibly the metal bracket on the wrong way?

Im aligning the 3 holes in the metal bracket with the 3 holes in the cover. Then I got these 3 black circular push fittings like diagram 74 in the picture. Put these in the 3 holes but still does not hold it up.

How does the metal bracket fasten under the glovebox? Not clear in the servicebox pic and doesn't show any fittings for it.

If all else fails find a strip of metal or sturdy plastic to brace the offending item and use some self tapping screws just long enough to hold it in place without going through into the glove box and that would hold it in place without being seen.

Just leave the thing off..it only serves to avoid over zealous passengers kicking feet booting the wiring etc. So if you just shout at them if they start to explore the space with there feet then no problems.
If its important and must stay how about taking a car wash sponge and glueing it on the back of the metal plate with a third of the sponge pretruding off the edge of the plate with the other two thirds well glued onto the plate
then once glued stuff the sponge in as you put the plate back in place then once in place the sponge will reform itself and hold the plate tight enough in place and also deaden some sounds and use the clips to assist the fix..

i would leave it off and hanging like you said but feel the damn flimsy thing can be easily be broken if someone steps on it while getting in the car.
i tried gaffer tape it but the trim is upholstery and the gaffer tape doesnt stick to upholstery properly so the tape came off.
thanks hope the spong method works.
