Use the search - a solution has been discussed in detail here before. Essentially uses a hack saw blade slipped in the opening between the dash and glove box door. Then hack saw the U-shaped metal clasp. Once the door is opened you need to replace the broken latch inside the door as well as the U-shaped clasp. Both parts are cheaper to replace than the tearing apart the entire glove box door.
