Default Drawer under cigarette lighter wont open

I was in a mates 75 the other day and he opened a drawer under the cigarette lighter and cup holder that was spring loaded as per the cup holders.

I never knew this was there as mine is evidently wedged shut. It looks like its pushed in 'too far'

Cant get it to open?

Anyone seen this before or have any ideas?

Cheers.

Squirt some WD 40 through the gap. If it's not been open for ages it probably sugar out of coffee / tea that holding it shut. Mine was like that.
