    not really it happens all the time. very common problem. i just pulled the lever open a bit and looked up and used a hammer and a flathead screwdriver and broke it so i could get the box open and not ruin the tumbler. buy a new latch from someone on here with a parts car and put ur tumbler in it.

        Damn. I have the same problem with mine. I just bought my e30 about a month and a half ago and I've never seen what was in it. I hope there's somethin really good in there because I'm about to bust this thing open. Lol.

          On some glove boxes, if you push from left to right while you are trying to open the latch, it helps. The clearance gets distorted somehow and causes problems. To open my glove box, you have to lift the handle and push left.

            For those of you with a completely stuck glove box, there are two or three threads on this site that explain the situation in detail.
            FUCKING SEARCH!


            If your glovebox has problems opening but still opens, order a new latch NOW! Getting back into the box when the latch has given up is just as hard as breaking into an e30.
