Release the damper assembly arm

Open the glove box and empty it of all contents.
The next step is critical. If you remove the stopper arms and pull down the glove box with the damper assy arm still attached, you'll break it. Replacing it involves removing a large part of the dashboard, a major job. You don't want to do this, trust us on that.
Release the glove box damper assy arm on the right side of the glovebox by pushing gently forwards towards the engine. The "C" latch will release from a pin, and the end of the arm will lift out of the opening.
The damper assy will not disappear into the dashboard, so there's no need to hang on to it. Just push it up a little and out of the way.
