To remove the glove compartment drawer of the Škoda Octavia, you need to pry with an object to detach the side trim panel of the dashboard: once this panel has been removed, it will be possible to locate the underlying screws that need to be extracted.

At this point, it will be possible to open the glove compartment drawer and remove the additional internal hooks and screws that fix it to its housing: it can now be completely removed so that the new one can be inserted.

After installation, it will need to be properly secured, ensuring that it opens and closes without any issues.
