Just received new cabin air filter for my 2008 acura tls with instructions that do not match. Instructions indicate to remove the glove box and then some other screws to gain access. Not so easy. Removed the glovebox to get it out of the way and found only 2 screws. Removed the two screws and the back of the glove box does not come out. Suggestions?
