Guys...if you gone so far to remove the glove box and if you have already watched/replaced other actuators, you can do this as well. One tip is to remove the heating element which is on the way and second tip is to remove the actuator opposite to the recirculating one to get more space. I thought I can never replace, but I did just in 2 hours. I am not keeping the car, I am done with it so will be looking for the next owner. I like the smooth ride, but I don't like the problems it comes with and the milage sucks.
I have buick enclave and have the same issue...replaced 3 actuators as of date, this one I still have to fix. My wife does not drive this car and my kids hate it

Sounds like your car is a fan of Van Halen hot for teacher.
Thanks the video

How did you get the glove box door off without breaking the hinge hooks? Mine will not budge even when fully open and hanging down.
