Just fold the glove box down.
It has tabs that youll have to push in (towards the center of the box while its open)

Where you mount it really depends on what kind you have. a cheapy 150-300watt or a 400+Squarewave cheapy or 150watt+ Pure Sinewave unit. Pure's are far bigger than their Squarewave counterparts.
