    The lower glove comartment knob on my 2008 prius wiil not stay in place. when the door is closed, the knob pops out. It appears to be part of a larger module that connects to the latch, but i cant figure out how to connect it. Toyota sells the entire latch mechanism, that includes both the upper and lower knob mechanisms, for over $100. I'm looking for a simple fix without having to replace the whole latch mechnism. Anyone have any success with this?
