There's a single screw accessible from the back of the dash (you may have to take the glovebox liner out) that holds it in place. It might be a clutch head screw, so be ready for that with the proper tool.

I wish they made a replacement with a finger hook so I could pull it open while depressing the button. When I press the button on my ‘57 3200 I have to claw the door with something to pull it open. Otherwise, the catch grabs when button is released and before door falls open.

Sounds like your hinges need the springs replaced. Mine is a push to close. If I push the glovebox button my glovebox door pops open, fast.
