Cant get this part back in place. HELP !!

[Toby Davis]

Just in front of the gear stick is the ashtray compartment that slides open showing the cigarate lighter and storage compartment for coins etc. I have taken this out to change the bulb as it blew. I have put the whole section back in place but it wont stay in place when you slide the lid back. It keeps falling down and out of place.

Anyone taken this out before and succesfully put it back in as it was before ? Dont understand what kept it so sturdy and fixed in place before

You have probably broken the clips that held it in place. Or they are not back in place properly. There are 2 clips closest to the gearstick.

Yeah thats correct at the top, dont appear to be broken, one either side. But cant see where they go. Do they push underneath the plastic dash ? Can get the whole unit dead in place but with little pressure on the unit it will just falls out of place.
