Access to fusebox

Post by supergalaxy »

Sorry to ask a dumb question but how do I remove the glovebox to gain full access to the fusebox on my T25 (1986, later type) I've scoured the Haynes Manual and the Wicki and stared at the glovebox, but it doesn't give specific details (does it?) I just don't want to break anything by being too brutal with it.

The plastic catches that stop it dropping too far bend in slightly - it will then chuck the contents on the deck! :lol:

There's one or two plastic hooks that need to be pushed to the side.These sometimes snap.As the plastic seems to go a tad brittle over time.

Well I've tried bending the plastic tab thingies in but it still only comes down the same amount. I guess I'm not pushing them in far enough (that's what I mean by not wishing to break anything) Thanks for the replies so far, I'll give it another go.
