Default RX 350 glove box removal

Taking the ECM out and am stumped on the glove box removal. The airbag is the question .... how do I get it off to access the lower screws on the glovebox?There is a plastic rectangle trim piece over the airbag .... does that have to come off or are there some bolts underneath that holds the piece on as a whole?

This is a CarPlay install video, but it shows how to remove the glove box in a 2013-2015 RX350. The glove box part starts at about 3:45.

glove box is easy to remove, however, in ECM is not behind it, it is under the hood for anyone who finds this and needs to know. The toughest part on the glove box is the far left airbag bolt and black glove box phillips head. The vertical trim piece of the console side has to come off and you will easily see the two fasteners. There are (3) 10mm bolts for the airbag and (5) small black phillips head screws for the glove box. There is an electrical connection or two to the glove box so be careful pulling it too far outward without disconnecting.
