Sunglass holder hard to open
Anyone have problems opening their Sunglass holder and have fixed it? I have to quickly tap the holder multiple times until it opens up.

The thread that minusprevious linked indicates that SSL package cars don't have it. I have an SSL, so, yeah...

Thank you. Pulled it out and my spring was bent. Bent it back into place and works just fine now. For those having this problem check the spring in there and when you put the screw back in you have to tighten all the way down and loosen it little by little til in opens up the way it should.

The spring is probably to weak to keep it shut.
