I found three threads about this:

viewtopic.php?t=28793 Front storage door below shifter will not stay closed.

viewtopic.php?t=9617 Loose storage tub under the shifter.

these first two reference another thread, as "http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=777" but that's from before the forum software changed, so that zerothread link doesn't work, but thanks to the internet archive wayback machine, I was able to identify it as the third promised thread:

viewtopic.php?t=560 Storage compartments rinky-dink closures: SOLVED!

hope they help. That third one was from member NovaResource, who hasn't been here for a really long time, but when he was here he was an invaluable source of info and insight.

My problem with that compartment was that when I pressed the release button, it wouldn't drop open, so I had to hook a thumbnail in the seam on the side when pressing the button and then pull it open.
