Title: Glove box spring catches broke
Post by: Tezmax on 06 September 2012, 17:21

And before you lot start :grin: i know this is prob the most boring subject of a 18T you may of
helped out on but the spring catches dont spring out no more hence its wedged closed with a piece
of card :sad:
The door its self appears to be a sealed unit and cant see how the whole lot comes out if i gota replace it.

Any idea's guys

Thanks.

I can't find the link as I'm on my phone, it's over on vw vortex I think, the glove box lid can be separated. When you pull it apart it sounds like cracking! But it's not as bad as it sounds. Just needs to be glued back together and it looks good as new.

And to take the whole unit out, there should be 3 screws on top and 3 on bottom.
