Re: Glove box is shut closed
Is the glove box locked and do you have a key? It is a pretty simple latch. A thin flexible piece of plastic may be able to help push the latch open by inserting in the gap and moving from left to right as you try to turn the latch. Is there anything in the glove box pushing on door. push door in to see if it releases something binding the latch.

Thank you... it's open.
Now how do I keep it from staying shut.
