The glove box doors have a piece of spring steel in the bottom of the door. When installed, working properly and adjusted properly, the door will spring open...without relying on the spring in the glove box light. They are a little tricky to get out and in, but I just put one in the door on my '66 Chevy C20 Custom Camper, that had a broken helper spring.
I am sure I have some of these, if you would rather install one, in lieu of a pull handle or knob.
Yeah, I'd LOVE one! I drive the thing daily-- i treat it like a regular vehicle, which means I'd like it to function like a regular vehicle. That means I need to get rid of all the little peculiarities and compromises. Since I store napkins, paperwork, a flashlight, gloves and other stuff in the glove box, that means I need to get into it without cursing.
