Default My power outlet came out...

OK so i plug my cellphone charger into the power outlet and i guess that everytime i used the glove box it would smack into the charger loosening the outlet slowly.. So now it's able to come all the way out and i can't get it to screw back in.. Can anyone think of anyway to screw it back in?

I put this in the gallery cuz i have some pictures... but I dont really know where else to post so if this is a problem Thank you for moving it.

I used jb weld (2 part) and jammed it back in and then wiped off the excess.

The proper way to do it would be to pull the console and fix it proper.

I just fixed mine two days ago....I didn't have to remove the whole glovebox. Just the two screws behind the rear panels, the one in the middle of the glovebox and the two under the center console and I was able to pop the bottom loose enough to get my hand behind there and screw the thing back on tight.

I fixed my outlet the proper way once and it popped loose again - then I JB Welded it and it has not come loose since.
