Sometimes Masda car owners have situations when it is necessary to remove the glove compartment, but not every driver knows how to do this, since the glove compartment is attached with several screws that are not immediately noticeable. Below is a step-by-step guide on how to remove the glove compartment.
If you want to remove the glove compartment on your Mazda, follow a few simple steps.
Instructions
Step 1
Find the space between your car's right door and the dashboard. It will only be available if you open the door, preferably completely. Now carefully remove the plate (you will hear a characteristic click). If you are unable to snap off the plate with your hands, use a flathead screwdriver. Once you remove it, you will see 2 screws that need to be removed.
Step 2
After you complete all the above operations, open the glove compartment itself. You will see screws in it, unscrew them. All these actions are elementary, you should have no problems performing them.
Step 3
So, you went through several consecutive steps, unscrewed 4 screws. Now the panel with the glove compartment has cleared a little, and you have the opportunity to crawl into the depths with your hand.
This design is all attached to one latch. Gently pry it off with a little physical effort. After that, pull out the glove compartment lid. To do this, pull it slightly to the right and then down.
Step 4
Now, removing the glove compartment is the last but most difficult step. Unscrew the hard-to-reach screw. If you look straight ahead, you will not see it because the head of the screw is pointing downwards and the screw itself is not visible at first glance. To unscrew this screw, first crawl under the panel itself and look at it from the bottom up. Now that you see this screw, unscrew it. So, the glove compartment lock will snap off, all the screws are removed, and you have the opportunity to remove the glove compartment.
