Unlock the glove box

Rip the handel off , have a look in the hole and you can get a screwdriver in it and trigger the mechanism , but fiddly but once you find the tab its easy

Break in as said, get a complete second hand one as its only five minutes to change the lot.
I always take the box out when I scrap a Mk3 as one of my keepsake parts, if you can keep the light intact even better
Never lock the glove box, it breaks and it does not deter a thief as you will see how easy it is to get in

I used to make locks and internals years back, it was gash old stuff functional at best in them days Rover owners can testify to that

Rip it off (Keep the lock intact mind)

Then buy this off ebay.
