I took a short piece of thin black shoe string and made a loop that I placed
the ends under the push button/ lock so that the loop stuck out enough to pinch
with my thumb and index finger as I pushed the button in with my thumb and
could pull at the same time. Been there for years, no one has ever noticed and
it works every time. A little tricky to put the the lock and the shoe string in
the glove box lid the same time, but doable.

mine does not open unless I use the key to pull it open. or you could ben a
small nail and stick that in the lock.

The glove box or should I say â??cubbyâ?? on the TR6 (1970) has decided it will
remain closed until further notice. Key does turn the lock but then the box
refuses to open. Short of blowing up with a shaped charge, is there any other
way to open the &^%&^%*& thing ??
