To remove the driver's side glove compartment under the steering wheel on the Fiat Punto, start by loosening the two upper screws with a large flathead screwdriver, turning them half a turn counterclockwise until you hear a click on both screws, then lower the glove compartment using a screwdriver if it does not come down immediately.

Once the glove compartment is lowered, to remove it completely, pull it towards the car's engine so that the clips detach and you can take out the compartment (in the video, the compartment remains attached due to wires, but if there are none, it will come off easily).
