Vette(s): 2004 Commemorative Edition Coupe, Auto w/HUD. 13K miles in 2015. Sold 1982 Red Coupe
The other day I was trying to open the storage compartment lid behind the passenger seat when the plastic handle broke off. |sad|

Is there a way to fix this? Will a strong glue work?

Or do I need to replace the entire lid?

Dave,
Let me check in my shop for my old passenger/battery compartment frames. If the pass. compartment door frame is still good, I will send it to you. You will have to dye it. If it's cracked I won't bother. I let you know either way. And I don't think any glue will really hold up well.
Mid-America has the the door trim/frames for about $30. And that is both storage and battery doors. Paragon has them for about $25.

Bair's has them also. Two of the three loops on " The Toy's" compartment doors are shot. I ordered the door frames and forgot to order the loops so those will be coming.
