its the lock to keep the compartement to the right down / locked
Hi! a part broke in the locking mechanism in one of the compartments in the trunk of my 2005 RX400h - its a small plastic, 2 screw bit which can be replaced in 2 secons but i have no idea where to look or what its called..i have included a picture to illustrate - the broken off piece is not in the picture, only the part thats still attached to the compartment lid

im not a native english speaker, so this is also a problem for me when im trying to identify the name of the actual part thats missing..perhaps "hinge" is correct?

I was looking at parts lists on the internet and they do not show that bracket, only the whole lid. Lexus does things like that, they make you buy a big assembly for a small part. The cover (right side) for a Japan built car is $260 USD, $290 USD for a Canada built car.

Here in the U.S., we tell people to go to an automobile salvage yard and get one off of a junk car.

Sorry to give you bad news.
