Hi folks, me again... Does anyone know if it's possible to remove the hinged moving section of the glove compartment from its outer enclosure without having to remove the entire glove compartment assembly from the dash? Something has 'escaped' over the back of the glove compartment and is trapped between the movable section and the outer enclosure with the result that it's preventing the glove compartment from opening fully, so I want to extricate the offending object before anything gets damaged. I know that in some makes of car the hinged, movable part of the glove compartment has pins that locate into fixings in the sides of the outer enclosure and that the pins can be released from the fixings by pressing firmly inwards on the sides of the movable part; I can't see clearly enough whether this is the case with the Superb or whether the hinge points have screws through them to hold the movable section in place. I don't want to try exterting too much pressure on the sides of the movable section in an attempt to release it - it'll only need to move slightly to provide enough space to enable the trapped object to fall out or be extricated - if the hinges have screws through them! Thanks in advance, -- Martin
