Nope, not difficult at all. I had to remove it when fitting my iPod to the car. There are some torx bolts underneath which need to be removed, as do the screws which IIRC are inside the box. Basically pull out all the torx bolts and the box will simply drop out.

I think you have to remember to disconnect the light before you finally pull the glove box off.
