How to take apart Glove Box Latch? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

For my 77 Bonanza, I bought a new glove box from LMC. Thought it would take maybe 5 minutes to replace. Now, 30 minutes later, still stumped on how to remove the door catch. It's not a locking type, just a 1/4 turn latch. Any hints? Thanks, LBJ

There is a little latch on the right side you have to release 2 times with a pick. Check youtube, there are videos.

Bigglass, I don't know how I got TWO of the same posts here, but cannot delete this one. I figured it out later on and posted the way I did it. Took a while.
