This really helped me - thank you for showing me what and how to do it and for linking the replacement parts. Could not have been easier. Nice work boss.
Great video. Wasn't as simple as you made it look (for me), but I did it! I had the replacement part already, and now I'm good to go. My cabin filter was a mess, so I'm glad I finally got around to fixing it. Thank you!
After watching your video, i tried to fix mine. It won't open... after **** 3 hours, i found out glove box was locked... =-= 😑😮💨. Thx for your video, now it works like a brand new. Thank you.
1) Note that lock must be unlocked to use the pick method. When unlocked, your pick catches a lever. You use your pick to move the lever down. Then the lever moves the pin fixed to the latch tab, to release the latch tab. (For reference, see 1:37 where author moves the lever [lock is in the unlocked position,] and where the tip of the lever [screen left] just touches the latch pin.) The lock feature works by shifting the whole lever to the side, and shifting the tip of the lever to be out of contact with the pin for the latch tab. Therefore, if the lock is enabled, then you can use your pick to move the lever down all day, but it's not in contact with the latch-tab pin, so that won't do anything. If locked, then make sure you use the vehicle ignition key to move the glove-box lock to the unlocked position before using the pick method. 2) I recommend only the pick method because: (0:21) "It's gonna snap open" means that when you use the pry method, you will break ("snap") the glue at the attachment points. (These are not tabs to be re-used, rather fixed glue points that you will permanently break.) If you break too many glue points, then if you want everything to work right afterward, you'll have to pull those pieces apart and re-glue all the glue points. 3) Don't pry the two door pieces as much as you see in the video. If you do unlatch by going in from the top, you need only a small opening to separate the inner and outer pieces of the glove-box door, just enough to fit a thin screwdriver through, and to see where the latch tab is, maybe less than 5mm or 0.25". If you limit the size of the split, then you can get away with breaking only a few glue points near the top center, none near the corners, and the glove box will function normally. Too big a split means more glue points broken, and more of a risk that you'll need to launch a second project to re-glue the two door pieces. 4) I used specialized plastic pry tools to protect the door piece from any risk of permanent nicks. No metal tools for prying. That's for both the pick method, and the pry method.
THANK YOU...I used the second method to open my glove box on a 2004 Pilot. The first method was too scary. I was afraid I would break something and on the 2004 that cover is a big piece.

Awesome, what are your thoughts on a 2022 Pathfinder, our handle completely broke off...
THANK YOU...I used the second method to open my glove box on a 2004 Pilot. The first method was too scary. I was afraid I would break something and on the 2004 that cover is a big piece.

Thanks for Watching!
Thank you
Great, it worked for me
Thank you kind sir.
Thanks for watching!😎
Thanks for the video, how long was the pick you used?
I have one of those things the dentist use to scrape your teeth, it’s about 9 inches long. But It doesn’t have that be long.
Does this work on a CRV?
Sending hate to whoever the supplier is for this mechanism, it’s so poorly designed and easy to break
Wonder if this will work on my 2007 mustang? Someone tried to break and it was locked. So now the latch is broken. I can not unlock it.
Thank you. Just went too fast on showing part number.
I have the same problem on my honda pilot 2015 where can I order a new one
There’s an Amazon link in the video description.
666th like? Uhhh!!! But fantastic video! Thank you so much for posting this.
Do you know where to get the part currently?
I see Amazon is currently out of stock. Bummer. Try doing a google search for it or try the Honda dealer.
Will this work for a Honda CR-V 2003?
Yes. Procedure is about the same.
👍🏽👍🏼👊🏿🤙🏽😂✝️🇺🇸
😊b ib😊😊😊j😊I o
Does this work on an accord as well?
