Seen this question asked on RR dot net, but no one posted the solution for how to fix the cover to keep it closed.

Powerful UK have videos showing how to disassemble the rear console on YouTube.. Worth checking out of you need some pointers.

In my case (MY08 L322) it was a very simple fix where the guide pin on the door assembly had slid out of position. Push it back into place and the cover will once again toggle between closed and open. At least until the kids play with it too many times and the pin slides out of position again
