2009 Vantage - Stuck Glove Box

Looking for help with my 2009 Vantage and stuck glove box. When you depress the button it does not open (duh). I *think* it's because my wife put some napkins in the glove box and they may be interfering (or stuck in) the latch mechanism. Any ideas for getting it open?

Thanks!

two things wrong with this....one, never take the wife in the Aston, two, no napkins it implies eating in the Aston very no no

Yes Astons are for Blonde bond girlfriends, did you ever see James bond with his wife in Aston or did you see him eating in the car?? Thats why ASTON GODS are unhappy at you

I think you just have to wiggle wiggle wiggle the box until it opens.

Also make sure you put car key in the car ignition, or start the car and then try to open the glove box. Glove box wont open if car is turned off or if key is not in ignition.

Now that you have been given a sound thrashing for even contemplating eating in the car at a future date and stocking said napkins...

Probably will take this to fix..

Pop off the surround, undo the 3 screws holding the door. This should give you room to wiggle/pull the door open.

Regardless of what was stuck, you can still blame your wife, we won't tell.

Thanks all, I'll mess with it more tomorrow.

Best news is the wife's hotter than the Bond girls... And yes, occasionally on long drives from Atlanta to Miami there is food consumed! After all ... It's a VERY nice car, but it's still just a car ;-)
