I dont know what you mean by broken but if the handle i broken off and there is just a space where the handle would go, you can definitely open that, mine is like that.
First you put your finger inside the space and you will be able to feel 2 pins or something, one will be facing right and one left, they have a gap between them. You press them both at the same time and it will open.
Hope that helps

The handle pin is broken so you just have to pull on the plastic handle down to take it out. You will see a spring on the box. Just push down on the spring and it will open the glove box.
When you cannot open the glove box of your 1999 Pontiac Montana with the key you may have a broken key lock. You can change these locks out with aftermarket key locks which are available.
If the glove box will not stay shut, look at the lock mechanism, the hinge and the latch. If either of these is bent, broken or loose, replace it. These are the most common causes.
Remove the three Philips screws along the top and the two on the bottom corners and remove the entire glove box. You can then work on the latch from the back of the latch and easily open the glove compartment by gently prying off the corners of the glove box from the locking pins.

When you open the glove box look for the strap on the right side of it. Slide it out of the slot on the glove box. Be sure to hang on to the glove box, because it will now drop open. Open the box far enough to allow the hinges to slide out from the dash, and remove it. Once you do it, it's no problem.
