Default CD changer/toolbox compartment door keeps opening itself

The compartment cover for the cd changer/toolbox keeps coming off while I'm driving, and the toolbox flies out. Anybody got a quick fix for that? I usually jam some heavy objects up against the door to keep it in place.

I just installed my new phatbox today (woo!) so I'm worried about the toolbox hitting the phatbox cartridge on its way out.

Default I had that happen when I first got my car

for some reason the toolbox wasn't fully latching even though it felt like it was, make sure it's grabbing both guides and fully latching. Push hard and make sure it's in there squarely.

Default The toolbox shouldn't fall out. When you lift the toolbox handle, two prongs

on the bottom should open onto the metal frame and then snap into place when you release the handle.
