You must have very, very tiny hands if you classify that as a 'glove box'

I am a foreigner and actually dont know how to call it you can give me the right name please

Sorry buddy, no offense at all was meant, just that I had issues with my own 'glove box' and was disappointed to see this question wasn't on it. To be honest, I haven't a clue what the name for this bit is, though I call it a 'trinket tray', but feel that's not correct either...

These are usually called power socket storage compartment, but it doesn't matter - it's perfectly clear what you meant.

If you give me the fist six digits of your car VIN (after the WDB letters), I'll get the info you need

 

[Pampos]

Where can i see this number? If i give you the exact model, or chassis # ?

 

[GLK]

Chassis number is the VIN (vehicle identification number) - just the first six digits is enough for all repair instructions; for exact parts the full number will be required

 

[Pampos]

Chassis No: WDD1173032. . .

May i know how exactly this is being opened?

Give me a few moments
