Removing the glove compartment door is very easy and does not require special precautions or tools; simply use a star screwdriver to first remove the screws securing the soundproof panel located just below the glove compartment to access the screws that secure the door; at this point, remove the two screws, open the door, and take it off; then proceed in reverse to reinstall it, aligning it correctly before securing it with the respective screws and remounting the previously removed soundproof panel.
