F48 Glovebox lock

Just bought a 65 plate X1
Got the car from BMW Oxford and live up in Sheffield so it’s a bit of a treck to go down and see them to fix it
Got it delivered a few days ago and realised the glovebox doesn’t open
The handle just flaps but doesn’t feel like it’s trying to open the lock

Anyone have any ideas on how to open/force open it or any way to remove the glovebox without being able to open the door to get to any bolts that might be holding it in?

Any help would be appreciated

Hi Nolan,

Maybe the glovebox was locked using the ignition key. On the side of your FOB key, you will see a button. If you push it, you will be able to remove a regular ignition key. Then, use that key to unlock the glovebox.
