Any suggestions on what and where to purchase parts to repair my jammed glove box on my 2000 740i? I think I need to replace the entire mechanism.

Thanks in Advance.

I'd say junkyard, but this is a pretty common problem so they will probably be hard to find there.

Before you rush to buy parts, reach underneath to pull the cable by hand, so you can check out what the issue is. The set up has a number of possible adjustments, both for positioning the lid, and the cable/catch arrangement. If incorrect this can result in excessive force on the handle
