United-Kingdom Glove Box


Have seen various Photo's of ' Glove box ' cover and references to same in owner's manual.

But not listed as an option when I bought my car.

Has anyone in 'UK' got one ?.

If so what price , is it an add on ?

If no response from anyone then I will visit my dealer and obtain 2003 options list.

Thank's.

LUMSPEED.

Glove box?

Hi there,
I was in my dealers parts department earlier last week asking about the glovebox.They said it is available as a retro fit kit, they showed it me on their computer,all the bits added upto roughly £50 if you have air-con theres an extra pipe you have to buy aswell which is a little bit extra.

My dealer (who is the same one that Aus-tim uses) fitted a retro fit glove box to my car as a sorry for a few problems that I had with the car. The service manager said that it was easy to fit, we find it really useful. If you come on the Heartbeat run you can have a look.

Glove Box

Thank's for the response Tim + Martin.

On my way to the dealer's with money jangling in my pocket.

Not only will the Glovebox store the cd's it will hide the Plug in cd player which is nestling on the shelf.

Cheer's .

Ps. Considering the heartbeat run as I know and love the area well . My parent's live in Pickering.

Thats the problem as Minty points out 1.5 hours fitting time at £65 per hour plus the fifty quid makes around £150 to fit something that should of been there in the first place

Try a search for the word glovebox you will find a lot of information from that have it and like it, those that have it and dont like it, those that dont have it and want it, and those that dont have it and are happy about not having it.... Opinions very greatly on this on.
