Glove box, In or out???

[GTIspirit]

That padded knee bar was only present in later years of the A2. Earlier years had a trim panel with some integrated cubbies/parcel tray. The knee bar is NOT part of the dash, and is pretty heavy. Take it out.

Thanks for the clarification. It's an '87 GTI, so an early one with lower trim panel. I wasn't sure what else to call it, hence referring to it as a padded knee bar made of hard plastic. Right now it only serves one function, and that is to hold the fuse panel. Otherwise this lower trim panel gets in the way and I was hoping I was allowed to remove it. Thanks.
