Compatibility

Installation Recommendation
- Prepare basic trim tools: plastic trim levers, Phillips/torx drivers as required.
- Open glove compartment and remove any screws or retainers visible along the inner face and hinge area.
- Carefully disengage plastic clips using trim tools to avoid breaking surrounding trim.
- If latch, damper or hinges are to be reused, transfer them from the old lid to the new one before final fitting.
- Align the lid and refit fasteners hand-tight, check operation, then torque to manufacturer torque settings if available.
- For painted or color-matched finishes, check for consistent color and texture before final installation.
Most Common Failure Reasons
- Broken Plastic Clips And Tabs: Frequent opening, accidental impacts or cold can make mounting tabs brittle and cause breakage.
- Worn Latch Mechanism: Repeated use leads to wear of latch components, preventing secure closure.
- Hinge Fatigue: Hinges and dampers can loosen or fail over time, causing misalignment or sagging.
- Sun And UV Damage: Prolonged sun exposure can cause fading, discoloration or cracking of the surface.
Notes For Mechanics And DIYers
This part is intended as a direct exterior/interior replacement for damaged or worn glove box lids. When replacing, inspect associated components (hinges, latch, damper, surrounding trim) and replace any damaged fasteners or clips to ensure a durable repair. For best cosmetic result, verify color code HZD and, if necessary, consider professional color matching.
