Need picture of map pocket lid feature
 
1 Attachment(s)
I'm in need of a good picture of the feature on the map pocket lid that holds the roll pin--mine broke and I'm trying to repair mine as I still have the pin and the rest of the cover is in good shape. There are a lot of photos of this out there, but I'm looking for one that is looking straight on (or rather, normal to) the feature so I can model it up and have something similar machined or printed and then fixed onto the cover..

Does anyone have a non-broken cover that they could post a picture of? I've attached a photo of my broken one showing the picture orientation I'm needing. If I can get this help, I'll update this thread with my attempts at fixing this.

Thanks!

Spend the $100 and buy a bubble tech lid. You won't be disappointed. If you try and glue that nonsense back together it's just gonna break again.

If I need to do that, I don't have a problem with it, but I have a couple things in mind that I want to try... half of the fun is trying to fix it. :)

Anyone have an unbroken lid lying around that they wouldn't mind taking a snapshot of? It doesn't have to be with a high quality camera or anything (I just used my phone).

you can jury rig it yourself, but I recommend squashing the the dentent spring so that the lid is very loose.

otherwise the next thing to break will be the pin hole on the bin.

Post the results if you follow through to satisfy my curiosity....
