Default How to remove the Glove Box??

Hey,

Trying to remove the Glove Box to get it painted.
I see its connected in the back with 2 plastic screw things...one on each side that holds it up.

How do you take them out...or does the whole glove box need to come out.
Anyone have a step by step instructions on this?

Thanks

I have them at home, but this is from memory:

Remove two round plugs inside of glovebox with small screwdriver or by reaching around and pushing out.

Remove the two bolts exposed by the plug removal.

Remove bolt "around the corner" of the dash inside of door jamb.

Remove bolts on top edge of glove box.

I can give you better instructions tonight, but I'm sure someone will already have come to your aid by then.

Good luck. :cheers:

And YES, the whole glove box needs to come out!
