A modular glovebox assembly for an automotive vehicle having an instrument panel (10) mounted therein is constructed so as to provide a mating reference between a striker (82) and a latch (76) independent of the instrument panel. The glovebox assembly (18) has a frame (26) with a first integrally formed half-hinge (48) along a frame hinge edge (50), the frame (26) defining a frame opening (52). A door (54) for alternately covering and uncovering the frame opening (52) has a second integrally formed half-hinge (62) along a door hinge edge. The frame (26) and the door (54) are connected at the respective half-hinges to provide a mating reference between the door (54) and the frame (26) independent of the vehicle instrument panel. The latch (76) is attached to the door (54), and the striker (82) is attached to the frame (26) for latching co-operation with the latch when the door is moved to a closed position. <IMAGE> |
