Removing the glove box

Has anyone removed the glove box to run wiring to the engine compartment? From what I can tell there is a rubber plug right behind it that I can leverage. It looks like it's just a few screws on either side of the glove box and out it comes, but there is also an airbag right below it, so I want to approach this cautiously.

Any help would be appreciated.

By the way, how often does that microfilter in the attachment need to be changed?

Thanks! I’ll take a look to see what’s exposed once I pull that cover.
