Hyundai Mighty Glove Compartment
Glove Compartment to suit the Hyundai Mighty, cross-referenced against OEM specification and dispatched countrywide
What Are Hyundai Mighty 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.
Signs You Need New Glove Compartment
Before you order glove compartment for a Mighty
Ordering glove compartment for a Mighty starts with the generation: the SA-market light-truck range including the EX8.These are chassis-cab trucks bodied after sale, so the cab and driveline come from Hyundai while the load body usually does not — tell us which of the two the part belongs to.
Engine families fitted to the SA-market Mighty:
Trim level drives almost everything inside a Hyundai — seat fabric, console mouldings and switchgear all differ between base and Elite or Executive derivatives of the same car.
Send us the trim level, the interior colour, and whether the car has leather or cloth with your enquiry and we will confirm the correct glove compartment against your car before anything is dispatched.
In South Africa the Mighty is mostly distribution and delivery work where downtime is lost income, so demand is overwhelmingly for driveline, clutch and braking parts. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Hyundai Mighty Glove Compartment — Questions We Get Asked
Will glove compartment from another Mighty fit mine?
Not automatically. The Mighty sold in South Africa as the SA-market light-truck range including the EX8, and these are chassis-cab trucks bodied after sale, so the cab and driveline come from Hyundai while the load body usually does not — tell us which of the two the part belongs to. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
Which engines did the South African Mighty come with?
SA-market cars ran the 2.5 turbo-diesel and 3.9 diesel as badged on the SA derivatives. The code stamped on the block is what we work from — the badge on the boot is not reliable on its own.
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?
