how do i get the glovebox out???
i have taken out the shelf below, unscrewed the screws at the back and the side of the glovebox lid (dont know if this does anything). but cant get to the ones either side of the lock, as the lid is in the way.
is there anyway to get it out, or do i have to take the dash out?

in the glove box there will be 3 gromets, pull them out under them will be some screws undo them then with a small stubby screwdriver unscrew the two screws on the locking mechanism and there should also be two screws on each side once thats all done close the glove box and tilt it over and it should come out.

I used a normal screwdriver to gently push out the two pins that the lid pivots on. With the lid off it's real easy to get to the 3 extra screws that run along the bottom of the glovebox.

Just worth noting that non ac cars have a much bigger glovebox which is more of a battle to get out as it has more screws.
