Simple question... Does anyone know the trick for removing the lock from the Glove box? I've been starring at it for an hour and can't see how to do it. I suspect it's a "secret hole" you put a paperclip in or the like.

GOOGLE KNOWS ALL! Found by doing a search for "+glove +lock" in my GMail:

If you want to make the trip I'd love to have you. I haven't run into any "not enough hands" issues yet but... you never know.

Your call. It's kind of a drive.

Most days, I'd rather be lucky than good. Wink I DO NOT have a glovebox key BUT.... Someone had already pulled all the pins out of the lock so I didn't need one.

Thanks for the help

Gotta be sure he gets at least some of the credit he deserves for all his
contributions. Sure do miss him.
