Look up under the handle and there's a hole perpendicular to the front of the glove box. Insert a small screw driver about an inch into the hole and pry gently towards the back of the truck which should release the glove box. It takes some encouragement, but remove the 2 screws holding the latch (from the inside of the glove box) and the latch should come free out the front.
