You know, the Insight, which tries very hard to be lightweight, has a 4lb glove box door. It's a vibration thing. Nobody would buy a car whose glove box rattles when brand new, so they make them very heavy, and satisfying to open and close.

You could replace the glove box with a canvas sack that hangs from the glove box mounts. If you can come up with something that opens and closes, I'd be happy to read about it.
