I believe it's a common fault that the hinges break on the glove box between the 2 front seats. I've heard you can get a hinge fixing kit without replacing the centre tunnel section Is this true?

Thanks Rob05, I did go for the one at Lancashire Trade, the Triptronic box makes me a far more relaxed driver, it had all the bits/body colour/right interior colour I wanted, also on all the research I did on the RMS problem, the majority still said the manuals were more likely to be effected, but who knows. I'll just keep a close eye on any oil leaks.
