installing glove box????

does anyone know an easy way to get this sucker in? doesn't look easy without completely removing everything and going in from behind instead of through the glove box opening.

Re: installing glove box????

There is no easy way to go those in. You just work them in from the front. That's what I have done.

Re: installing glove box????

Unbolt the 2 bolts that hold the side of the dash to the quarters then cut the metal on front edge of the dash behind the dash pad. Remove the dash and install the glove box then reinstall the dash!!! hehehehe
Or, fold and stuff the cardboard box into it's hole. Originals almost always fall apart so you may as well plan on getting a new one that isn't dried out. Sorry but no easy way and no plastic reproductions available!!(:<)

Re: installing glove box????

i had to cut my new glovebox liner... but then i got a vintage air kit and it comes with a plastic one that's half as deep and i don't remember how it went in but it was just as painful
