Glove box on 95 850 Turbo

[peti]

I am trying to remove the glove box so I can get at the heater fan. I removed six torx screws from the glove box and also the kick panel from below. The problem is that the glove box will not budge.
I don't want to force it and maybe break something, am I missing a step or two?

Thanks , Peter

Hi Peter,

2 things on the glove box.

1. the latch for the glove box lock is in the way, you need to squeeze the top of the glove box down to slide it past the latch.

2. use a small screw driver and try to free up each edge, the box itself is made out of a thin plastic and mine is pretty flexible. It may have gotten stuck to the side of the opening.

Also, if you have the kick panel off, you could try pushing it from the back to see if is moving and where it is getting stuck.

Good luck,

Eoin

That worked, thanks. Peter
