From memory there are 4 screws on the bottom hinge area and 2 or 3 on the rear/top. Remove the fuse box cover and also the interior light and then you should be able to pull out the glovebox, its quite well in there and requires a good tug to get out.

There are some torx bolts on the underside edge, the heads face the bulkhead. I know there are definately two but as the previous post says there could be more..

Lets hope they get the correct part, my local Citroen main dealer got me a motor with a brass cog instead of the extended one the first time round!
