If it's the rubber bits sticking to the lid use this stuff...
Best rubber treatment anywhere... kind of pricey and wouldn't be worth buying for this one thing. But a bottle goes a long way so treat all the rubber on the car and forget about dry rot and hardening. This stuff works!
Not this. If the door won't open when he pushes the button, or rather, won't stay open, Papa_Jo's issue is with the mechanism in the hinge. I can't see that the rubber bumpers are providing any assistance with opening the compartment.
Pop you rubber bumpers out and you’ll see what we mean.
OK, I see now that they do assist with unlatching
But there is a spring mechanism in the hinge area that actually opens it and holds it open, and that's what he said was his issue. But if his issue is actually that it wont open, then yes, it could be bumpers.
