    I’m not sure on this one, but some petroleum jelly might not be a bad idea.
    Just kidding. That one is a mystery

    On the right side of the glove box, you need to remove that cover too.

    There will be another screw under that part to remove that cover.

    There is a nice open drug hiding spot behind there.

    Step 1. Put it in drive
    Step 2. Hit a tree
    Step 3. Cut out deployed airbag

    Right under the far right vent. Open the door and on the side of the dash there is a half moon shaped plastic. Remove that. THen you can remove the panel right under the vent.

    THere is a screw under that panel.

    I would love to replace that factory piece with a leather covered one that matches my seats. I think the Limited has leather or "leather-like" covering.
