    FL2 glovebox

    Just thought i'd post an update with my Freelander 2. I fixed it yesterday but involved replacing every single fuse in the car-whether it needed it or not. Did you know Freelander 2's have three fuse boxes? I just yanked the fuses out, looked at the rating and replaced with fresh one. It took...

    Ok, goes from bad to worse. Wiggled the glovebox out, broke a plastic clip which it attaches to the inner dashboard and after all that-no fusebox. :( Problem for me, is im recovering from a stroke and my hands do not do what i want them to. Just fed up with all this.

    Yes, according to google, the fusebox is behind it.

    How do you remove the glovebox on a Freelander 2? I blew a fuse earlier fitting led bulbs to interior lights and cannot work out how to remove the glovebox.

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Not much and not today. Yesterday, i ceramic coated the bodywork using Meguiars ceramic hybrid wax after first applying several coats of Autoglym super resin polish. Autoglym will always be my first choice because no other brand can come close to its shine and ease of use but its only a showroom...

    Black plastic restorers

    Vaseline (petroleum jelly) Google recommended it. I wandered through my local pound shop few weeks ago and saw a tub of it for...£1. Thought it was worth a go for such small outlay and yes it works very well. It dont last for ever (few washes) but for a quick detail it'll do.

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    My FL2 is only a gs so never had a centre armrest from new so three weeks ago when i bought the car, i ordered one from Amazon and it turned up today from China. Not the best fit-it needed fair bit of jigging around until i was happy but i got there in the end. It does have five usb ports for...

    I don't commute. The van comes home with me so my personal miles is really low. Previous vehicles mot's have shown them being sometimes 2k from one year to next. However, as we all know cars deteriorate when not used which is my trouble. I'm purposely taking the FL2 for mad thrashes to keep...
