Default Glove Box out

I've notice that my glove box seems to be a bit off, after my stereo was installed. It looks like it's tilted one side. I can feel it rubbing as I open and closed it.

From what I can see, I don't know why it's doing this, or if it's even related to the stereo installation.

How is the glove box bolted on a G6 Civic? Where can I start looking? Anyone with experience in taking that part of the car a part?

Any comments, theories, suggestions would help.

Thanks

check underneath the glove box and you should see some bolts or screws that hold the hinges. i guess you can go from there. sorry if that wasn't much help...

FYI incase anyone ever want to know.

The glove box is held by two bolts on each side. It looks like you can turn it with a screw driver cause it's got a "+". But there is no way to turn it cause it's just too tight. There is also a nut on the back end of the bolt that no wrench can get too. It look like it needs a special tool shape in a "L" to reach. Without loosening the back nut, there is no way the bolt will turn. It's that tight. After trying, and damaging the bolt with various tool (it just not going to turn), I gave up. So I simply pull on the glove box in the counter direction. The glove box is perfectly straight now!

Point is: Sometimes we overlook the simplist solution first.

If we could only have that on video of the hour I spent on this. Rated PG-13.
