Hi folks, long time since Ive been on here, had very little problems with my Citroens recently.
Im just about to attempt the heater flap repair (nearside)using the cut the heater box method (??) and feel I need to remove the glove box surround to gain access. The glove box is out , I have removed the slim fake wood strip accross the dash, and a fairly large torx head screw from under the lip but can see no other fixings, it seems rock solid , not the slightest bit of give/movement anywhere. Has anyone any advice on removing this panel ?
C5 exclusive 2007, facelift type dash, although this part looks the same as my earlier C5s. Thanks in anticipation.

Re: C5 Glovebox surround
I think the "glovebox surround" is part of the dash
I have various repair handbooks and wiring diagrams for C5 mk1, Xantia, XM, Berlingo and C3 mk1.
I have Lexia/Diagbox (Sweden) and Servicebox/sedre

Re: C5 Glovebox surround
Yes I think you are right, I thought with it being two different mouldings, in different colours , it would have been detachable from the top part. I'll just continue struggling. Thanks for you reply.
