any way to turn off the glove box light?

well, since installed the superbright leds in my car last night. when i close my glove box and turn on my headlights, i can see the light coming from the glovebox a little. The glove box shuts all the way, but there is a little seam opening that the white light shines through and is annoying. I'm thinking about just changing that bulb back to stock if that is the only way to fix it..

So i'm guessing when the lights are on, the glove box light and the center console light just come on and stay on until your turn the lights off, i was hoping there was a switch that was hit when you opened or closed the console or glove box, but i guess not

it was uber easy!!! i

1. drop the glove box by pushing inwards on the back tabs.
2. twisting the plastic light piece counter clock wise until it popped out
3. removing the bulb
4. replacing the bulb
5. twisting the clear plastic piece back clockwise

took about 2 minutes

same with center console
