What Are Hyundai Creta Glove Compartment?
The glove compartment on a Hyundai is the lidded storage bin in the dashboard ahead of the front passenger. On i20 and Accent we see the plastic latch snap cleanly in half, so the lid hangs open or jams shut with nothing else wrong.

How we match glove compartment to your Creta
On the Creta, GS, then SU2 are all in circulation locally, and they do not share one parts list.The GS and SU2 share almost nothing visually or mechanically — check which one you have before ordering anything forward of the bulkhead.
- 1
Find the generation code on your Creta — it appears on the VIN plate and on the original registration paperwork.
- 2
Confirm the engine family. The Creta ran Gamma 1.6 (GS), 1.5 (SU2), 1.4 T-GDi (SU2) and U-line 1.6 CRDi (GS) in this market.
- 3
Send both to us with the glove compartment you are after , along with the trim level, the interior colour, and whether the car has leather or cloth. We match it before we quote, not after.
Sourcing note: the Cretathe SU2 generation sits alongside the Kia Seltos — which widens where we can look when local stock is thin.
In South Africa the Creta is mostly a newer nameplate whose first cars are only now reaching the independent aftermarket, so availability skews towards service and collision parts rather than driveline. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Hyundai Creta Glove Compartment FAQs
Will glove compartment from another Creta fit mine?
Not automatically. The Creta sold in South Africa as GS, then SU2, and the GS and SU2 share almost nothing visually or mechanically — check which one you have before ordering anything forward of the bulkhead. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
What should I send you when asking about Creta glove compartment?
The VIN is the single most useful thing — a photo of the plate is fine. Failing that, the generation code and the engine code off the block. The Creta ran as GS, then SU2, so the generation is what narrows the search.
How much does it cost to replace a Hyundai glove box?
A used glove compartment assembly through SA strippers usually lands in the R250-R850 bracket for i20, Accent models. A latch-only fix is cheaper still. Get a free quote and we will match it to your trim and colour.
Why is my Hyundai glove compartment jammed or broken?
The latch tongue on i20 and Accent dashboards is a thin plastic hook that fatigues and snaps. Once it breaks, the catch jams in the shut position. Opening it forcefully usually destroys the surrounding trim too.
How do you open a Hyundai glove box with a broken handle?
Ease a thin plastic trim tool down the side of the lid to push the latch tongue sideways off the striker. Pull gently as you feel it release. Never prise from below, as this cracks the hinge tabs.
Can you replace just the glove box latch on a Hyundai?
Yes, on most i20, Accent units the latch is a separate plastic module that unclips from the inside of the lid. A latch kit is cheaper than a full glove box, though colour-matched second-hand lids often make more sense.
Where can I buy a Hyundai glove compartment in South Africa?
