Somehow managed to break my glove box yesterday, will no longer open. The left hand button thing works as it should but the right one is busted and wont work. You can move it but it wont spring back or anything. Any way of getting it open without breaking it off? Im most distressed as ive got a bag of minstrells in there.

I forgot to mention my other halfs westlife cd's are also in there so if it getting it open takes awhile I dont mind that much.

hammer the centre of it with a screwdriver, break the outer part, then you can release the catch

The minstrells are saved! Pain how such a tiny bit of metal can cause such agro.
