Appletree Pro Tech Tips

Inspect Behind the Dash: Before sliding the new plastic glove box into the dashboard opening, take a moment to inspect the wiring harness and cables located behind it. Because the plastic unit is rigid and does not flex like the original cardboard, ensuring your wires are tucked away and organized will prevent interference during installation.

Check Your Mounting Hardware: While this is a direct fit replacement, it does not typically include new screws. Check your existing mounting hardware and the glove box door catch for rust or wear. Replacing old, stripped screws during the install will ensure the box stays secure and rattle-free.

Weatherproofing Advantage: One of the biggest benefits of switching to plastic is moisture resistance. If your Beetle has ever suffered from a leaky windshield seal, you know how quickly the stock cardboard box can turn to mush. While this plastic box is waterproof, use the installation time to check your windshield rubber for cracks to keep your registration and belongings bone dry.
