I thought I broke mine too. See, I'm trying to bring my Scamp back to life, so I removed the glove box door so I could clean it up. I had no idea how to get the lock off so in my typical fashion, I did NO research and I manhandled it. Needless to say, the metal ring came off and the spring came out. I tried to figure it out on my own for a few hours, then gave up. I was bummed until yesterday. I sat down and really got a look at was going on. I saw that the spring has a hook on one end and it meshes with the lock cylinder on one side. The other end of the spring hooks into another slot on the other side of the lock cylinder. After I straightened out the (now) bent spring, I inserted it and it stayed in place. The metal ring is what stumped me until I saw this thread...http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=257317 . It was tricky. I got half of the ring in place then I took my needle nose pliers and rotated the ring in place until all of it was securely where it belongs. Then I was able to slide the lock back in place after depressing the tumbler. It all stayed together afterwards and now works like a charm. Like BurntOrange said earlier in this thread, "That dang lock is like a rubix cube." More true words have never been said!
