glove box stuck closed 700 1992

posted by  someone claiming to be Robbmcc on  Tue Dec 7 11:05 CST 2010 [RELATED]

Hey Guys - my glove box is stuck. The knob turns but refuses to release from the catch. I found a nice post in the FAQ but frankly I put about as much downward force on it that I care for fear of breaking something. My plan B is to get to the PnP get a replacement lock then just take a 3/8 inch bit and drill down right thru it until I can get it open. Any opinions on if I might damage the part I need to reuse that's attached to the top of the glove box cavity? May be once I get to the PnP I'll be able to see exactly what I need to do. I don't see anyway of getting the knee panel below the glove box off without accessing fasteners thru the glove box. Any advice appreciated.
