To remove the glove compartment on a Citroen C3, fully open the compartment and empty it. Locate the fastening screws inside and along the edge of the compartment, then remove them using a flat-head screwdriver. Also, check the bottom and sides of the compartment for any additional screws or clips.

Once all fastenings are removed, gently pull the compartment towards you to detach it from the dashboard. If there is internal lighting, disconnect the relevant electrical connector before completely removing the component.

Be careful with the plastic tabs to avoid breaking them. After removing the compartment, you can access the area behind it for any necessary work.

For reassembly, reconnect any connectors, position the compartment in its place, and reinstall all fastenings.

How to Remove the Spare Wheel from a Ford Ranger

In this video, see how and where to find the spare wheel of the Ford Ranger. Behind the rear passenger seats, you will only find the kit needed to extract the wheel from its housing. Remove it by turning the safety knob, and attach the lever that will be used for this purpose. Next, take the safety key from the vehicle remote. This will be needed to unlock the latch located at the end of the load bed. Once the latch is opened, you can remove the metal square that allows access, using the bar you have attached, to the actual lock that will lower the spare wheel from its housing under the load bed. Replace the flat tyre with the spare and reverse all the steps taken so far to put everything back in place.
