Glovebox opens half way? Gets stuck

Anyone run into an issue where the glovebox only opens halfway and then gets stuck? If I pull on it, it will pop and open all the way but you've got to really yank it.

I had taken the glovebox out of the car previously so I suspect something happened when I put it back in. I do recall it being a pain in the rear to get it back in.

I've pulled mine to put in a USB port, and it went back in easy. I'm betting it's binding on something in the dash then (wires, etc).

Thinking about it, when I first put it back, I did have issues with it not opening/closing nicely. I had to pull it the second time due to cabling.

Yeah I must not have it in correctly. I couldn't get the cig lighter plug to recess in nicely. Of course rather than attempt to take it back out I decided to post here instead 😆

I caught mine right after I put it back. And then I did some and then decided to just pull it out and re-do it.
