Default Glove compartment light

I just had my broken glove compartment replaced by the dealer (came broken from the factory, along with a broken A/C control unit, now the car has 1500 miles) and it's fine now except for that when they replaced it they - sigh - forgot to reconnect the light inside it. I checked the bulb, it works. Anyone know where the connector for it is and how hard it is to get at?

Default I have a possible answer.

Are your headlights on when you open the Glove Comaprtment? If not, the Compartment will not light up. If they are on, then my post was pointless 8-P

Default Drop down the glove box and you might see it...

Take everything out of glovebox. Squeeze the sides and gently lower it down. Note that the little plunger (speed brake) on the left side may come apart.

You may be able to see the connector at this point. Reconnect the plunger as you press the glovebox up and it will snap back into place.
