Used Alfa Romeo Spider Glove Box

The Alfa Romeo Spider (916 series, 1995–2005) is a two-seat roadster and in common with many open-top sports cars of its era it did not include a conventional passenger-side glove box — the dashboard layout prioritised a compact, driver-focused design without that storage compartment. If you are looking for interior storage, the Spider did have a small centre console storage area and door pockets depending on trim, so it is worth checking whether one of those is the part you actually need. If you believe your specific car has a glove box, confirm with the breaker against your registration, as limited-run or market-specific variants can occasionally differ from the standard specification.

On the 916-series Spider the main interior storage options were the centre console (which varied between trim levels such as Lusso and the later S versions) and door pockets rather than a traditional glove box. If you are chasing a replacement for a broken or missing storage piece, describe the exact location to the breaker and confirm against your registration, as trim level and model year (the car ran from 1995 to 2005 with a significant interior refresh around 1998) can affect which console and trim parts are fitted. A good breaker specialising in Alfa Romeo will be able to identify the correct part from your registration plate.

Yes — the 916 Spider received a notable facelift in 1998 which updated the dashboard, switchgear, and interior trim, so early (Phase 1, 1995–1998) and late (Phase 2, 1998–2005) interior components are generally not interchangeable. This matters when sourcing any interior trim piece, centre console, or storage component, as parts from one phase are unlikely to drop straight into the other without modification. Always confirm the phase of both the donor car and your own car with the breaker before purchasing.

The 916 Spider was offered in trim levels including Lusso and later S and Veloce variants, and while the basic dashboard structure is shared, trim-specific finishes, seat styles, and console details can differ between levels. For functional storage components such as a centre console the fitment is generally determined by the phase (pre- or post-1998 facelift) rather than the trim level, though cosmetic differences in finish or colour should be expected when mixing trims. Confirm the specific part reference with the breaker against both registrations to avoid a cosmetic mismatch.

The Alfa Romeo 916 Spider was produced exclusively as a two-door convertible throughout its production run from 1995 to 2005, so door count is not a variable you need to worry about when sourcing interior parts for this model. The key variables to confirm with your breaker are the phase (pre-1998 or post-1998 facelift) and the trim level, as these have the greatest influence on interior component compatibility. Always quote your registration to the breaker so they can match the correct specification.
