BMW Serie 5 - Video tutorial

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Glove box
Operation: Disassembly of the glove box lock

If it happens that the lock of the door of the glovebox tends to jam, it is absolutely advisable to remove it before it locks, making it impossible (unless you go to break the lock itself) to open it, perhaps just when from the doorway objects, important documents such as the registration certificate or the insurance contract must be recovered; It is a frequent defect caused by the fact that the internal mechanism of the lock is completely made of plastic and tends to wear out and to deform easily; therefore, once the door has been opened, just unscrew the two internal screws and remove the elements that make up the lock.
