Center console broke?

Today i was driving and i noticed my center console opened without sliding it back. Normally when i first got the car (few days ago) i had to slide it back to open the console.

Is there a fix for this? I liked it the other way soo much better...this is just getting annoying.

The console lid slide attachment parts easily break. A known fragility.
Many of us have had it repaired/replaced under warranty and were thereafter very careful not to lean on it when getting in.

I seem to remember some DIY threads on this. Do an advanced title search and you should find it.
