Description

The Glove Box Housing, identified by Maserati Part Number 66240900, is the actual inner compartment of your Maserati 4200 GT’s glove box. While it may seem like a simple plastic bin, its design and integrity are crucial for the functionality, cleanliness, and overall refined feel of this essential interior storage space.

This meticulously molded inner bin fits perfectly within the larger structural frame of the glove box, providing the finished, usable storage cavity. It’s where you neatly stow away your owner’s manual, vehicle registration, and any small personal items you wish to keep secure and out of sight. Beyond simply holding items, this housing acts as a protective barrier, preventing your belongings from directly contacting the car’s underlying mechanical or structural elements and shielding them from dust. Aesthetically, it provides a clean, uniform, and well-finished interior to the compartment, reflecting the attention to detail expected in a luxury vehicle. Its smooth surfaces are also designed for easy cleaning, maintaining the pristine condition of your Maserati’s cabin.

Given its purpose as a storage container, the glove box housing can be susceptible to various forms of wear and damage:

  • Cracks or Breakage: Dropping heavy or sharp objects inside, or impacts from forceful insertion of items, can cause cracks or breakages in the plastic, compromising the integrity of the compartment.
  • Scratches and Scuffs: Regular use, especially with items that have sharp edges or abrasive surfaces, can lead to visible scratches and scuffs on the plastic, detracting from its appearance.
  • Warping/Distortion: While durable, extreme temperature fluctuations (especially prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when the glove box is open) or heavy items causing sustained pressure could, in rare cases, lead to subtle warping.
  • Discoloration: Over extended periods, some plastics can show signs of discoloration or fading, particularly if exposed to harsh chemicals or prolonged UV light.
  • Broken Internal Features: Small internal features like dividers or clips for the glove box light might break, affecting organization or light function.

Symptoms of a damaged glove box housing include visible cracks, missing pieces of plastic, significant scratches, or an inability to properly contain items. While not affecting the vehicle’s driving capability, a damaged housing diminishes the utility and aesthetic appeal of your Maserati’s interior. Replacing it typically involves removing the glove box door and then unfastening the old housing from the main glove box frame, followed by securely fitting the new, pristine bin into place.

For your Maserati 4200 GT, ensuring the integrity and cleanliness of the Glove Box Housing (Part Number 66240900) is important for maintaining the practical functionality and the high-quality, organized appearance of your vehicle’s meticulously crafted interior. Replacing a worn or damaged housing with a genuine Maserati part will help uphold the sophisticated standards expected of your Italian grand tourer.
