Pull the tab on the back/top/left of the glovebox when you open it. Its the part that catches to stop it from opening all the way.

Dude, don't sweat it. Before the box is completely open pull the rubber stopper on the left side. This should slide out. You should then be able to drop the box and pull it out of its spot after you clear in bottom swing pins. The box itself is flexible, so don't be afraid if you need to use some muscle. I don't think that you can break it.

You are going to be taking that thing out a lot of times if you are like me (all mod happy).
It doesn't hurt to ask bud, but this topic was covered when the forums first came to existence. Search a little and you will find. Happy modding.
