Glove Box Removal

NC Adventurer Posted 2021-04-29 8:57 AM (#611522) Subject: Glove Box Removal Veteran Posts: 148 Morning Everyone, The heater control valve is leaking like a sieve on my '60 DeSoto Adventurer. To removal and replace it, I need to remove the glove box. The box itself is pristine, so I'm trying to not mess it while removing it. There's not enough room to shift it to the left (as you view it) to allow me to see the valve to work on it. Any helpful hints for removing the box without destroying it? Thanks a million in advance. wizard Posted 2021-04-29 10:33 AM (#611528 - in reply to #611522) Subject: Re: Glove Box Removal Board Moderator & Exner Expert 10K+ Posts: 13055 Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island You need to remove the lid and all the screws first - Look in the glovebox for the creases. You must fold it slightly and pull it out towards You. 1960fury Posted 2021-04-29 10:57 AM (#611531 - in reply to #611522) Subject: Re: Glove Box Removal Expert 5K+ Posts: 7416 Location: northern germany No need to remove the glove box. It is a bit tricky but you just gotta find a way to turn it the right way in the right position Takes a while and it is impossible to give instructions. 57chizler Posted 2021-04-29 12:47 PM (#611541 - in reply to #611531) Subject: Re: Glove Box Removal Expert Posts: 3780 Location: NorCal And the chances are the 60-year-old paper will crumble when folded. wizard Posted 2021-04-29 4:39 PM (#611554 - in reply to #611522) Subject: Re: Glove Box Removal Board Moderator & Exner Expert 10K+ Posts: 13055 Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island Always a risk, mine fell apart even without folding it. Luckely there's Fair repops...
