start off by pulling the end cap off the end of your dash board. this is just clipped in place and your thin pry tool or flat head will get it off very easily. This will expose 2 screws that need to removed, they are marked by red arrows in the pic.

open the glovebox door (hopefully yours looks a lot cleaner than mine)... anyway, there are 2 tabs (marked in red) on either side that stop the door from opening a full 180°. pinch these together so the door swings down like shown here.

you have 2 screws located to the left of the lower dash. these connect the lower dash to the center console and are located where I have the marked red arrows (picture taken as if you put you head in the glovebox and looked towards the drivers side of the car. Once these are free, the entire lower box will drop free with the exception of 2 sets of wires, one set is to the glove box light, the other is to the trigger. unclip these and you can pull the entire panel free of the car.
