glove box panel?

Anyone know how to remove the panel that is on the glove box? Mine is wood grain, i was hoping it was screwed on but it's not. Any help would be great.

I believe it's stuck on with double sided tape - but that's just a guess but a pretty darn good one. lol

I agree with johaner78, it's prob'ly some kind of contact paper-like stuff .... see if you can get under a corner with a Real thin putty knife.

It's double-sided tape...but you might want to use some form of higher strength fishing line to remove it instead of a putty knife. That will reduce the number of gouges in the paint and metal underneath, and "should" be able to slice through the tape while you use a thumb and pry it up. Another good tool is a nylon pry-tool. I got a 10 piece set from Eastwood, and it has come in handy a LOT for just this sort of thing. I think it cost me like 40 bucks, but it was worth every penny.

Double sided tape for sure. I took mine off because it sat a little crooked.(I'm kinda **** that way) Tried putting it back on with hot glue. DUMMY! First hot day with windows up it was dagling about half way to the floor with strands of glue. Don't have it back on yet but I'm looking for some good tape this time.

It is double-sided thin foam adhesive and takes some patience to remove if you want to re-use it. I used 3-M double-sided foam (1/16") to install. I only removed it to begin with for a color change to the door.

Sounds good thanks for the help. I'm glad they make a similar adhesive product to reattach. I'm changing the dash color and with it the glove box door.
