Interesting. Your description does not match my glovebox, at least on my 91 
Westy, which I had out and off just the other day. There are no cables of any 
kind on mine. It has two tabs at the rear corners. I push these in to clear 
the front of the dast, and the whole thing pivots, almost upside down. Then 
the hinge is in a postion to slide out in its keyed position. What year are 
you dealing with?
