Used Truck Glove Boxes & Dashboard Storage Compartments

Used truck glove boxes & dashboard storage compartments

Glove boxes and dashboard storage compartments give drivers a practical place to store documents, tools and everyday items inside the cab. In heavy trucks these compartments are usually integrated into the dashboard, centre console or passenger side of the cab, and are designed to match the shape, colour and durability of the original interior. A complete glove box typically includes the storage bin itself, the lid and hinges, and sometimes a latch or lock.

In this category we list used OEM truck glove boxes and cabin storage compartments removed from late-model European lorries. These are genuine parts taken from complete donor vehicles, ideal for replacing broken, missing or heavily worn storage units in the cab.

What you will find in the Glove Boxes category

Stock in the Glove Boxes category changes as we dismantle more trucks, but it typically includes:

• main dashboard glove boxes on the passenger side, with hinged lids and factory-matched trim;
• smaller storage compartments in the centre of the dash or above the windscreen, depending on cab design;
• open storage bins and shelves that sit in front of the passenger or between the seats;
• under-bunk storage boxes that are not classed under other interior categories;
• associated lids, hinges and fixings that are integral to the glove box assembly where supplied together.

Each listing includes photos of the exact item, OEM numbers where available and donor vehicle details, so you can compare shape, colour, mounting points and lid design with the compartment in your own truck.

Truck brands & typical applications

Most glove boxes and storage compartments in this category come from popular European heavy trucks, including:

• DAF XF and CF series;
• MAN TGS and TGX tractors and rigids;
• Volvo FH and FM long-haul and distribution trucks;
• Mercedes-Benz Actros, Arocs and Axor;
• selected Scania and other manufacturers when donor vehicles are available.

These are genuine OEM cab storage units designed to match the rest of the interior, rather than universal or aftermarket boxes, so they fit correctly and blend in with original trim.

Why glove boxes & cabin storage matter

Even though glove boxes and storage compartments are not moving parts, they play an important role in day-to-day operation of a truck:

• organisation – provide a safe place to store paperwork, tachograph rolls, tools, chargers and other small items so the cab stays tidy;
• driver comfort – reduce clutter around the dashboard and bunk area, improving comfort on long trips and nights away;
• appearance – intact storage compartments help the cab interior look smart and professional, which is important for fleet image and resale value;
• safety – secure lids and compartments help prevent loose items from becoming hazards under braking or in an accident.

Typical reasons to replace a glove box or storage compartment

Common reasons to order parts from the Glove Boxes category include:

• broken hinges or latches that prevent the glove box from opening or closing properly;
• cracked or missing lids after years of use, impact or previous repairs;
• damaged mounting points that stop the compartment from sitting firmly in the dash or bunk area;
• heavily scratched or stained plastics that spoil the look of the cab interior;
• replacing non-original or improvised storage with a correct OEM glove box or storage unit.

How to choose the correct glove box or compartment

To make sure you order the right glove box or storage compartment for your truck, always check:

• OEM part number on the existing compartment or in your parts catalogue;
• truck brand, model and cab type – for example DAF XF106 Super Space Cab, MAN TGX Euro 6, Volvo FH4 Globetrotter, Mercedes Actros MP4;
• position in the cab – passenger-side dash, centre dash, above-windscreen storage or under-bunk compartment;
• trim colour and texture to ensure a good match with surrounding panels;
• mounting method – screw points, clips and brackets used to secure the unit in the dashboard or wall;
• whether the part includes lid, hinges and latch, or if you will reuse any of these from your existing compartment.

If you are unsure, you can contact us with your VIN or registration number and clear photos of the existing glove box or storage area. Our team can help you cross-check compatibility before you place an order. For general guidance, see How to Find the Right Part and Compatibility & VIN Policy.

Used OEM glove boxes from dismantled trucks

During dismantling, our technicians carefully remove glove boxes and storage compartments from donor cabs. Each part is checked for broken hinges, cracked plastics, damaged latch mechanisms and missing fixings. Units that do not meet our standards are rejected; only usable OEM components are cleaned, labelled and stored under cover in our warehouse.

Because we specialise in used OEM truck parts, you receive storage units that are designed specifically for heavy-duty cabs, with the correct fit, finish and durability for daily commercial use.
