Oops.
I pulled my car apart 15 years ago and could have done a better job of cataloguing fasteners.
It’s 63 and I can’t figure how the glovebox lid attached.
Countersunk head screw coming up from below but what is the nature of the female in the body. Shell got dipped so have I dissolved sonethng
??

Ok. Figured it out. There’s a 20 x 3 strip with four tapped hokes in it that slides into the cavity. Takes the 4 countersunk head screws and allows a little adjustment for alignment. Had me beat but pulled a mates car apart.
