How to Remove the Passenger Side Glove Box of an Audi A3

Model: Audi A3 MK 2, 8P - Years 2003-2013
Part: Dashboard

Removing the glove box from the passenger side is straightforward. It is advisable to obtain a 10 mm socket spanner, preferably with a flexible attachment as shown in the video. Start by opening the passenger door and removing the cover that conceals the dashboard side to access the first screw securing the glove box. Two more screws are located just below the glove box, directly above the heel plate. At this point, open the glove box and unscrew all the screws located in the upper section to complete the removal.
