you have to remove the glovebox door to reach a couple of screws. Open the glove box & grab one end of the door near the pivot. Push the door toward the oposite pivot/hinge (in the direction of the arrow). You have to push quite hard & the door pivot will pop out of the dash.   | | | | | 02-01-2006, 01:08 PM | #5 | | Member Join Date: Sep 2005 Location: West Palm Beach Posts: 46 |
I used a long skinny screw driver and was able to get an angle on it. I was lucky, mine wasn't very tight. | | | | | 02-01-2006, 02:32 PM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2005 Location: çî†ÿ øf åNgëL§, CA Posts: 5,314 |

You can slightly bend the the arms that stop the box from coming down all the way. all you have to do is push down on the carefully and at the same time apply a little pressure as if you were trying to open the glove box allthe way. that should help you get to the those screws a little easier. | | | | | 02-01-2006, 07:34 PM | #10 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2005 Location: UK Posts: 312 |

It's on a magnetic mount on the dash so I can just throw it in the glovebox when I wanna hide it. | | | | | 02-03-2006, 07:43 AM | #11 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2003 Location: cary, nc Posts: 2,259 |
