The Glove Box is the small storage compartment in the dashboard of a vehicle. It holds a handful of light items within reach of the driver.

The glove box comes in Standard, Heavy-Duty and Sports versions. Each version fits only vehicles of its own type. The Heavy-Duty glove box holds the most, and the Standard one holds the least.

A glove box is a handy first stop when searching a parked car. It is also a good place to keep a few small essentials that should stay with the vehicle. The Mechanic is the best occupation for vehicle maintenance. It starts with the most Mechanics skill.

How to Use Glove Box


The glove box works like a tiny container inside the cabin. Its space is small, so it suits light things rather than bulk loot. Heavy supplies belong in the trunk.

Glove boxes in parked cars often hold small finds. Pens, tissues and maps are common. When a car is unlocked, its key is sometimes waiting inside the glove box. Checking the glove box before trying to hot-wire a car can save a lot of time.

A damaged glove box can be repaired with Duct Tape or Glue. Duct Tape restores more of its condition than Glue does. Either repair needs Mechanics level 1.

How to Install Glove Box


The glove box is fitted and removed by hand. Any survivor can do the job, whatever their Mechanics level.

The glove box must match the vehicle type. A Standard glove box goes only on a Standard vehicle, and the same rule holds for Heavy-Duty and Sports glove boxes.

The tools, Mechanics level and knowledge the game asks for to fit the Glove Box and to take it out again.
