Abstract: A glove box door latch assembly includes a glove box door pivotally mounted on a vehicle for movement between an open position and a closed position. A striker is mounted on the vehicle. The striker includes a mounting portion for attachment to the vehicle and includes a laterally reduced neck portion extending outwardly from the mounting portion. The neck portion has a striker opening therethrough. A latch claw assembly is mounted on the glove box door and includes a latch claw for engaging the striker opening of the striker when the glove box door is in the closed portion. First and second opposing living hinges are disposed on the glove box and positioned on opposing sides of the latch claw. The living hinges guide the neck portion of the striker into the latch claw assembly such that the latch claw engages the striker opening when the glove box door is in the closed position.
