A storage assembly (10) for an interior of a vehicle includes a housing (14), a cover (42) pivotably coupled to the housing (14), and a receptacle (38) defined at least partially by the housing (14) or the cover (42). The cover (42) is pivotable relative to the housing (14) between a closed position in which the receptacle (38) is substantially inaccessible, and an open position in which the receptacle (38) is accessible. The storage assembly (10) also includes a leaf spring member (50) having a first portion (54) attached to the housing (14) and a distal second portion (58) configured to exert a preload force against the cover (42) when in the closed position.
