Fwd: [E36] Trick to removing glove box?

[Pearson-Franks Family <pearsonf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

James:

I don't recall if Bentley calls it out, but the unobvious
possibility is the glovebox lamp assy.  It snaps out (with
some difficulty, on ours) and there is a 10mm head cap screw
under there.

Good luck!  Larry F.
