    I have an early dash for the F355, the kind that has a real glovebox. Does anyone know where the button is that opens the glovebox?

    Hmmm. That makes sense except it feels like something is catching it and keeping it closed.

    If you have the indent present, use a little "gentle persuasion."

    Part 28 in Qavion's diagram is the glove box strut located on the left side and visible in the Owner's Manual diagram I posted.

    Can confirm. No latch mechanism at all. Just lift from the center where the lower dash has an indent.

    Yes, I suspect the hinge is out of alignment and perhaps the baby shock is frozen. Thank you for the help!
