Default Do You Have A Glove Box? - 10-24-2004 , 10:15 PM






No, really; instructions that rely on it frustrate me, 'cause I think I
don't.

My 1995 9000 CS doesn't have one. It has an airbag where the glove box is
supposed to be. That's probably just in the US and undoubtedly in compliance
with some regulation on passenger side airbags.

My European 1995 9000 2.3 CSE lpt doesn't have it, either. Nice car, but
limited storage space (apart from the trunk, of course
<uncertainty>I think the non-airbag-model references to 'fuses in/behind
glove box' should be 'behind panel below pass-side airbag' on later
models</uncertainty>

Strange. Can't quite imagine a car without the glove box. My 1993 9000
CSE has illuminated glovebox with a separate appartment inside that
flips down for the fuses.

The glove box disappeared on models from 1994 that were equipped with
passenger side airbags. IIRC there was an extra pocket (with much less
room) on the centre console "gloves" etc.

Yeah - I was kinda disappointed, too. Fortunately outweighed by rest of
characteristics

I suppose it's a fair swap. Glove boxes might be nice, but they're no
good at keeping your face away from the dash...

Cheers,

Colin.

Indeed, this is very true. But as they say: You can't have everything. So
I tend to drive more carefully, especially keep distance. Distance is like
a bank balance - something you wish you had when surprises turns up.

Neither is a _passenger's_ air bag, I'm driving from the other front seat

Jokes aside - I agree. Storage space is a bit like salaries and desktop
space - you'll use up whatever amount's available....
