How to: Fix Your Sagging Ashtray

[treeafodo]

First off, I searched and didn't find a thread on this, so I'll make one.

What you need:
Drill
1/8th drill bit
Small screw
screwdriver.

Time required to complete: 5 minutes
Complexity (1 to 10): 1

My ashtray was sagging and driving me crazy so I sought out how to fix it.

Step 1: Removed the ash tray. This should be straight forward, so I won't explain how.

Step 2: Hold the ash tray where it needs to be and drill just below it with your 1/8th drill bit. You should be left with this.


Step 3: Screw the screw you chose into it and replace your ashtray.You are now done.

No more saggy ashtray

Why does it sag? Isn't it because there is a screw missing in the back of the unit?
Nice Diy! Easy and works well.
