Before removing it, it’s best to open the glove compartment and empty it completely. Once opened, you will notice five screws at the top as shown in the video.

If there is a plastic cover, remove it using a small flat screwdriver or a plastic wedge. Two screws are located at the back of the drawer and must also be unscrewed.

Once done, you will need to similarly remove the side panel of the drawer by unscrewing its bolts, then you can pull the drawer out by hand, disengaging it from the side attachments. Good luck!
