How do I replace the handle on the glove box?
The handle to the glove box on my 02 cab has snapped - I got a new one, but I'm not sure how to get the back of the glove box door off. There are a number of what look like plastic rivets or screw covers visible, but gentle prying doesn't seem to loosen them. I'm guessing that "all" I need to do is get these off and I'll be able to get to the back of the old handle, then it's just a matter of undoing two screws.
Does anyone have access to a manual, or have done this already? Is removing the "rivets" the right approach, and I'm just not applying enough force, or is there some other approach....
Many Thanks,
Graham

Graham - Here is a diagram of the Glove Box from the PET. Hopefully, this will help.

Thank you! 
Could you let me know the description of item 9 please - the scan cuts off just above the description. I need to know if it's a rivet or a screw. The heads are covered with the "fur" the rest of the glovebox is covered with, so I can't tell without scraping it off...
Again, many thanks for your help!
