Glove Box Door Rubber Bumpers
 
1 Attachment(s)
I have located a perfect replacement part for our trucks. The comapny is Rubber The Right Way. The aftermarket versions sold by all of the usual parts vendors do not fit so don't waste your money on them. These are also available at Steele Rubber but their shipping cost is way too high. Part #03.002B

Thanks for the part number, ordered some for my glove box, had to get a GMC sign too for the outside of my garage. :thumbsup:

I got my bumpers from Rubber the right way, but the hole size on the glove box looks like it will have to be enlarged to 3/16".

Hi Jagarra I also am looking for the right rubber bumper and this is not the right one or you wouldn't have to drill the hole out to make it fit. I broke off the teats off mine trying to pull them on even with rubber lube. What we have here is a close but no cigar situation they look like the right ones but getting them in their is not possible without drilling and that's up to the owner. I just don't think we should have to drill the hole out to make them fit from a stock standpoint. These were made for a 63-65 Riviera fender to splash pan bumper
part#03.002B. The correct one is possibly out there somewhere I just haven't
found it yet. I have been thinking about inquiring some of these mfrs about it but right now I've got bigger fish to fry. I have no problem with others drilling just not on my truck JMHO...Vernski:goodluck:

I got these to go into the hole. I cut off part of the ramp portion at 12 o'clock and at 6 o'clock. Pushed it in and pushed the leftover ramp into the hole rather than pull them in from the back. Rotated them until it worked itself in. Looks like they will work without enlarging the hole. I bought 4 of them so I would have some extras incase it was a pain to install and I broke one. Now to get some type of spring loading to open the glove box when the latch is released. The hole is an odd size, like .616. I see LMC sells a light kit with a plunger.
