Registration year alone does not prove fitment. Compare the actual photographs first, then match 735446265, the open-cubby shape, outer lip, fixing holes and mould mark C528. The donor year is not used as the sole fitment test.

| Make / model | Years | Body / steering | Fitment requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fiat 500 Type 312 | 2007–2015 | 3-door hatchback, UK RHD | Must have the same open passenger-side cubby; match 735446265, C528, lip and fixing points |

Engine note: engine size does not establish compatibility for this interior trim. Dashboard specification, steering orientation, part number and physical moulding are the deciding factors.
THIS PART WILL NOT FIT
- Left-hand-drive vehicles.
- Fiat 500L, Fiat 500X or New 500 electric / Type 332.
- Fiat Panda, Punto or other models merely because they share an engine.
- A closed-lid or different-style glove-box assembly unless your original inner compartment and all mountings match exactly.
- Any vehicle with a different part number, mounting pattern, outer profile or dashboard opening.
HOW TO CONFIRM FITMENT BEFORE BUYING
- Use the photographs first: compare the front opening, curved outer lip, compartment depth and every fixing hole.
- Check your existing component or a VIN-based parts catalogue for 735446265.
- Confirm the vehicle is a Fiat 500 / Abarth 500 Type 312, 3-door, UK RHD.
- Check the passenger side is the left side and that your dashboard uses this open-cubby design.
- Compare the mould mark C528 where visible. Mould codes support identification but do not replace the main part-number and shape check.
- Still unsure? Send your registration or VIN and a clear photo of the original part through eBay Messages before purchase.
WHAT IT DOES & WHY REPLACE IT
This moulded compartment sits in the lower passenger side of the dashboard. It provides accessible storage and forms part of the visible dashboard finish. It does not control an electronic or mechanical system, but damaged fixings can allow the trim to move or rattle.
| Common symptom | Why replacement helps |
|---|---|
| Cracked, split or heavily marked compartment | Restores the dashboard appearance and usable storage space |
| Broken tabs or enlarged fixing holes | A sound replacement can sit securely and reduce movement |
| Loose trim, vibration or rattling | Correctly matched factory mounting points help retain the panel properly |
| Missing compartment | Completes the lower dashboard and protects the opening behind it |
WHY CHOOSE A USED FACTORY PART?
A factory-produced used component is moulded for the vehicle's original dashboard profile, fixing locations, texture and rigidity. This can avoid the trimming, forcing, poor alignment or mismatched finish sometimes encountered with low-cost copies. Used parts can also cost substantially less than buying new—sometimes up to 70% less, depending on new-part price, condition and availability. Savings are not guaranteed.
FITTING GUIDE
Estimated repair time: approximately 20–45 minutes for an experienced technician; allow 45–90 minutes for a careful first-time DIY installation. Vehicle trim specification and seized/missing fixings can change the time.
Suggested tools: plastic trim-removal tools, Torx T20/T25 bits, Phillips screwdriver, small ratchet with 8 mm and 10 mm sockets, extension bar, torch and magnetic parts tray.
- Park safely, switch the ignition off and remove the key.
- Move the passenger seat back and protect nearby dashboard trim.
- Inspect the old compartment and locate every visible screw, clip and lower-trim fixing. Do not force the panel.
- Remove the necessary lower trim and fasteners using the correct bit.
- Support the compartment while releasing the final clips and pull it straight out.
- Compare the old and replacement parts side by side. Transfer reusable clips or fixings where required.
- Align the locating points, press the panel evenly into position and refit all fasteners.
- Tighten only until secure—over-tightening can crack plastic or strip the mounting point.
- Check the panel is flush, secure and free from rattles.
