RE: Spider "map pockets" in doors

["Ev Micou" <mdg36@domain.elided>]

Adam--the pockets just flap in the breeze. They will not stay open; they are
spring [or elastic]
tensioned to keep them 'moderately' closed. on mine, the flaps can be pushed
more closed than their normal rest position but they return to the normal
rest position of the face being slightly flush or a little recessed behind
the face of the door. If you flick the top of the flap, it should spring
back and forth a couple of times before coming to rest. Really a great
design, huh?

So how do the map pockets open in the spiders? Mine rattle a tad when
driving around/closing the doors; however, I have as yet to be able to
"open" them.... You can push the map door in a little bit and when you
release it it just snaps back flush with the rest of the door panel. How
do I get these doors to pivot out? I almost lost patience last week....
