Thanks Steve.  Unfortunately I didnt disconnect the battery so it looks like I need Vagcom or VCDS to clear this.  Does anyone know around Bracknell (berkshire/hampshire/bucks) that might be able to help?

Can anyone advise re above please?

Hi

I've seen a few posts about this - seems i'm not the first person to change the glove box (due to broken hinges) and then have the airbag light on in the dashboard (and also the orange ceiling light)

If possible I'd like to fix myself but am a bit confused re what's needed.  Vagcom is too expensive but would an OBD2 scanner reset and solve the problem or would i need specifically OBDeleven? Safety is obviosly the most important thing so i want to know 100% the airbag is working and i'm not just clearing the warning.  

Any advice appreciated, thanks!  (If helpful this is for a 2002 cabriolet...)

Brilliant thanks!!

Thanks Shytot, really appreciate the quick reply!  That's def an option but ideally i'm trying to do this without using the bracket repair kits, taking inspiration from this video.  I'm not explaining very well - it's not the hinges for the glove box itself but the damper, which is only on one side of the unit.  It looks like the pin for that has just popped off and got lost... (just re-edited the first post to make clearer!)

Hi!

Could anyone tell me if it's possible to find a glove box DAMPER hinge pin? If so is there a part number etc?  Not finding in the usual places (eBay etc)

Any thoughts/advice appreciated!
