If the buttons can be removed, then I think a blanking plate #4 covers the holes.

This looks like the CD unit.

The standard glove/storage box looks something like this.

i think it might be just too much hassle to dismantle it all!

With the trim panel removed, the job must be part complete already.

With the CD unit out of the way, the glovebox makes an excellent storage space.
