Gloveboxes on Ebay.

[lightbody]

Does anyone know why there are brand new gloveboxes for sale on Ebay? I saw 2 or 3 when looking at MINI stuff. It doesnt make any sense to me.

Are they worth buying? Are they easy to fit? Do they include the light/wiring? Is it possible to fit the aircon-connection?

Thanks for any tips!

The only thing I know is that the rattle from mine is unbelievable,18" alloys probably don't help,I have to have the cd on all the time,Mini dealer "adjusted" the glove-box last service,seems to be worse and getting worse.

More rattles? No thanks! I've had a rummage on MINI2 - sound fairly easy to fit one even with the aircon/light connections but the prices on Ebay are too close to dealer prices so i won't bother for now...

The Glovebox is quite easy to fit Rob, i fitted mine.
The only trick is locating the light connection which is taped into the loom.
Not sure how the A/C goes, but it looks like removing a panel in the 'box.
I prefer it to the shelf. Things dont end up on the floor when driving, only when opening the box now!
