I removed the two screws by the steering wheel but I cant get the one abov e the glove box... it looks like some sort of nut, anyone know the best way to do it? I cant seem to get any tools to fit or work up there.

drop the glove box lid all the way down, like disconnect the hangers from the box, so the lid falls staight down. Then, any tool should get in there

:withstupid: And it's a 7mm screw. Then lift up and pull the dashpad towards you.

I found it easier to actually remove the glove box as well.. its not THAT much extra work. Makes it very easy to find that damn screw.

Its not a screw... its some sort of hex nut thing that looks cheap and mass produced. I wish it was a screw.

What do you mean by hex nut? Like a six sided bolt that, a socket goes over or what?

If you take your glove box out you will be able to easily access the bolt/screw.

there is this round opening in the top of the glove box and there is a bolt up there holding it on. I was told its a screw, i took every visible screw out and it still wont budge. if any one has pics....

I just had the pad off my TGP tonight. I took out the glovebox, which was very easy, and the bolt was pretty much staring right at me when I looked up. I used a 9/32 socket on it and it fit perfectly.

Yeah, use a 7mm or a 9/32 as previously stated, and turn it out. It's just a screw with an end like a nut on it.
