1973 fuse box cover repair

[pbarcher]

One of the pins (in the console) that allows the fuse box cover to pivot is broken on my 73. There was a post about repairing this about six months ago, but I can't find it. I recall that the recommended approach was to use a right angle drill to drill out the stub and replace it with ??? I can't find a suitable replacement. Suggestions?

Thanks.

drill a small hole and insert either a wood or plastic rod of the same diameter and epoxy it in.....mine has been in for 6 yrs.
