19497, Glove Box Removal

Hello,
What's the easiest way to take the glove box out? The two screws on the bottom right & left? Or is there something else? Thanks

What are you going to do with your glove box? Cuz I need one of those screw you were talkin about ;) But yea, jus take off those screws, one of mine came broke, and I want to get another one.

Hello,
Well, if this goes successfully, I may have one for you.. I'll just go to my local hardware store and pick up a duplicate.. I'll let you know how it goes.

What are you doing with your glovebox installing a XboX or something to that nature?

Open your glove box, and there are 2 black retainers that the box rests on when its open. Push these pieces downward to unlock them, and pull them out. There will be 2 hinges on the bottom of the box, and 1 phillips head screw in each of them. The box should come right out when those are off. When taking off the hinges, be sure to support the glove box with your hand as to not put all the weight of the box on one hinge, dont let it dangle there while taking it off, you can break the hinge pretty easily..

No poop.. I just spent about 25 minutes taking off the hinge itself, then unscrewing the actual glove box from the hinge.. well now i'll know for next time =) Thanks
