That=E2=80=99s why we hate putting the glove box in.  The wiring harness =
always seems to get in the way as well.  Take a deep breath, a shot of =
triple-distilled Irish whiskey (Bushmills if you are protestant, Jameson =
if catholic) and work the defroster hoses around the box as best you =
can.  The cardboard-type hoses can be stretched and bent pretty well:  I =
found the plastic ones to be a little less accommodating.

One tip is to keep the heater pipe (carrying the water) tight against =
the firewall and run the hose (air) between it and the glove box. =20
