Yes, the Volkswagen Crafter does have a glove box on the passenger side of the dashboard. It is a standard interior fitment across the Crafter range, though the exact design and size can vary between generations and trim levels.
Yes, generation is the most important factor here. The first-generation Crafter ran from 2006 to 2016, and the second-generation Crafter was introduced in 2017 onwards – these two generations have entirely different dashboard structures, so a glove box from one will not fit the other. Always match the part to the correct generation, and confirm the exact year with the breaker against your registration.
This is a critical year boundary to watch: the first-generation Crafter ran up to 2016 and the second-generation began in 2017, bringing a completely redesigned cab interior. A 2017 glove box will almost certainly not be compatible with a 2016 vehicle, as the dashboard design changed significantly between generations. Confirm the exact generation of both vehicles with the breaker before purchasing.
Trim level can affect the glove box on the Crafter, as higher-spec variants may have a different or larger lockable glove box compared to base models. When sourcing a used glove box, it is worth telling the breaker your trim level as well as your registration so they can match the correct unit. If you fit a glove box from a different trim level it may look or function slightly differently, even if it physically fits.
No, the engine has no bearing on glove box fitment – the glove box is a purely interior component unaffected by what is under the bonnet. Focus instead on matching the generation and trim level, and confirm the details with the breaker using your registration number.
The glove box is part of the cab dashboard, which is shared across wheelbase and body style variants within the same generation, so differences like short wheelbase versus long wheelbase or panel van versus chassis cab should not affect fitment. However, if your Crafter has a specialist or conversion cab interior, the original glove box configuration may differ, so it is worth checking with the breaker against your registration to be sure.
