93 Sentra stuck glovebox...HELP!

Everything important to me, i.e. the car registration, my GPS, and everything is stuck inside my glovebox.

I have been locking my glovebox since I put my GPS in there, but this morning I unlocked it and tried to open it, and it didn't. The handle to the glovebox still feels like it's locked, but it won't budge. I have to get into my glove box eventually, I don't want to get pulled over and be without registration, or never use my GPS again.

I've always had my glovebox overstuffed, but I'm not sure if something is in the way that is keeping the spring mechanism in place, or what.

Does anyone know how I'd be able to get into my glove box? I really, really, really need some help here.

you may be able to unscrew the hing at the bottom. It'll either let you slide the door/lock open, or release enough pressure that the key may work. (all a guess/maybe...)

Push in tight on the door and then try to release the latch. It might be so stuffed with stuff it is binding the latch.
