My glasses head liner compartment door will not open. I've tried several times to push on it. The door goes up a bit, but does not unlatch the way it should. Any thoughts on how to get it open?
This happened to me; I couldn't get it opened either. This rather strong guy I was dating took a try at it, and just seemed to push a bit harder than I was willing to. It made this creaking noise and I could see the assembly flex, but it did open and I vowed never to put anything in there again.
Happened to my 04 right after I bought it. During a regular maintenance I asked the dealer for help. I think it was Power in Irvine. They got it out for me. Same thing I haven't used it since. Until your post I had forgotten the car had the compartment.
Yuck. I just took a look at mine. It's really a rather flimsy piece of plastic. Perhaps pushing up and somewhat towards the hinge (front) at the same time. If you don't get a workable suggestion here you might drop by a Toyota service dept and ask if they had any ideas.
i slipped a fine blade in the crack on mine and popped it open. still works so it probably won't break if you try it. good luck!
