How to disassemble the storage compartment in the BMW 3 Series?

Model: BMW Serie 3 F30, F31 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Glove compartment

As we can see in this tutorial, disassembling the storage compartment in the BMW 3 Series is an extremely simple and fast operation. First, let's go to the passenger side, then we release the door seal and detach the outer partition of the dashboard. Next, we unscrew the screw indicated with a Torx T25 key, continue by removing the lower bolts with a 10mm socket wrench, and remove the panel. At this point, all that remains is to unscrew the remaining indicated screws, remove the airbag module only after disconnecting the battery, and remove the entire storage compartment.
