I wouldn't be surprised if that's just how they made them. Mine had obviously been removed before I got it, so it's not a good sample, but without drilling out the mounting tabs a bit, it simply couldn't go back any further. It will be the first thing I look at on the next 944 I see in a parking lot or wherever....
p.s., my glove box door has alignment issues too which I'm trying to deal with now, so another theory I have is the dash got twisted in its travels, which may have contributed to the gap issue.
When I pulled the dashes off both cars I gutted I checked how to pop them back on immediately after I pulled them.
I wanted to see how they would be to get back into place.
They will catch on the heater assembly vent on the top….underside of the top of the dash.
I had to push them up and over into the windshield to get it to sit back in place.
Been a while since I did it but you have to play with them a little.
86 and 87 cars.
