Default Ashtray lid problems?

My 93 ashtray lid is just flapping around. Do you think I need just the spring or all these parts. I can't imagine just the door has all these parts. Anyone know? The lid has nothing attached, no springs,bolts,screws. nothing?

Don't get all of that stuff.
This is all you really need.

Yup -- that's the kit you need. It will fix the horrible ashtray door. Mine still works
<-----knocks on wood

I know it's going to be broken the next time I get in the car....I just know it

If you want to fix your ashtray door in the "fast fix-it for now" way.... (until you find a kit).... just put wheel balancing weights along the inside edge of the opening side of the door lid with double sided tape... works like a charm....
