Glovebox rattle.

My glovebox has gotten very loose and I need to fix it. What is the best way to tighten it up? When you close it, there seems to be about 1/4" play (rattles like crazy when you hit a bump). Thanks guys!

is the lock broken/lose (on the door) or is the piece it locks to broken/lose

either way i believe both can be tightened with hand tools...

Well, they are not loose, it seems that there is a gap between the latch and the catch when you close it.
