I recently purchased a locking glove box knob set up but for the life of me I can't get the old non-locking set up out. any help would be helpful.

There is a great posting on here somewhere that explains it in great detail, with pictures.

I hope this is right.

It takes a bit of practice, but is simple once you figure out the touch. If that link doesn't work. search "Glove lock Remove" in Interiors

yeah I am going to try that thanks but not sure if it will work mine doesn't have the key type knob yet mine just has the one with a small hole in the middle of the knob. seem like I need to put something in there but I have used a nail and a small allen wrench but no luck yey.
