How to remove glovebox?

[SLK Boy]

Ok, maybe I'm just not doing this right...

How do you remove the inside of the "glovebox"...you know, that tiny slit-poor excuse for a glovebox under the passenger side airbag? I'm trying to pull it out so I can install the dvd player in there...

I don't know exactly either. hahah, but Remove "INSIDE" of glovebox?? I am not sure which inside you mean, but if you are talking about removing the whole glovebox then I should be able to find out some info as mine was just pulled out couple weeks ago and it only took my shop few minutes. Hmm but then that's on a W210 and I'm not sure if it's the same as W202.

Yup..that's what i need to know..basically how to remove the cover itself and the interior felt thingy. The haynes manual isn't too clear on how to do it... :(

Dang, I should have paid more attention last time when the guy was doing it, but I was too busy smoking and chatting with a girl customer there. What's worse is after 20 Min talking I found out she got a BF :( WAIT, what the.. I'm going off topic. haha

Anyway, I'll get together with the shop again this weekend so I can find out for you. Unless somone can shed some info about this earlier.

And again, this is for W210 so take it FWIW. :)

Haha..it's all good...don't go out of your way...unless you're going to go back to talk to that girl again. ;) I find a way to remove it...

hmm.. i have a few pics but i dont have a server to post. but from what i can see/remember, i think 4 screws are all u need to take out.. then just put the glove-box out

[SLK Boy]

Can you email the pics that you do have? I'll try and post them...

remove the catching latch, 2 screws and then you can unscrew the screws from the felt like material and pull it out.

Hmm..did that, but it still gets kinda stuck at the door..doesn't want to come out.. :( maybe i just gotta pull harder...
