Remove catch from glove box lid

(1/1)

Chevygold:
I'll be painting my truck and am getting the interior ready, how do I remove the lock from the glove box lid so I can paint it?
Thanks
Graham

VileZambonie:
Open the glove box and trip the latch closed. Use a pick tool to depress the locking tab in the cylinder housing while pulling the knob outward. Repeat on the second detent and then remove the nut.

Chevygold:
Been away a lot lately in our campervan, thanks for your reply will give that a go if I can figure it out!
Graham

Chevygold:
Sorry I just realised I didn't reply, thanks for the info,  although I have to admit I resorted to you tube to see exactly where to poke my prodder!
All sorted now although still not painted, other projects taken priority!
Thanks
Graham

Is there a grease you would recommend to lube one. Maybe just white lithium grease?
