Mk2 Is Glovebox Removal

[blackcts]

Hi,

Gave a friend a lift with a pack of beer (at night) and he had the seat pushed forward as there were 3 people in the back.

Forward to the next day and there is a whopping hole in the soft touch glovebox lid - the top of one of the beer bottles has wedged and took a chunk out of the soft touch material. I'm gutted but I'm going to try and get a replacement from a breakers yard.

Has anyone any idea how big a job it is to remove the glovebox lid on a mk2 IS?

Cheers everyone

Take a read of the link that gives the pdf.

Although its about ipod integration the pics should give you what you need to remove your glovebox.

Hope you find one and get it sorted OK. That's got to be a real gutter.

You are legend Normski! Aye I'm gutted, it really takes the look of the interior, it's like a big cigarette burn - but at the end of the day it's one of those things, its not like it was done intentionally. Most other gloveboxes are made of hard plastic and likely would have ended up with just a scratch, as you know the IS has that lovely quality soft touch glovebox lid. Grrrrr...thanks again and I'll be phoning round breakers shortly, hopefully shouldn't be too dear.
