Possible to disable glovebox light while left open to deter theft?

Hi,

I'm going backpacking for a few days and to deter any car prowlers at the trailhead, I want to leave my glove compartment open while I'm gone to show any thieves that it's empty with no valuables in it.

But the light comes on when it's open.

Is there some way I can turn the glove compartment light off temporarily?

I'll be leaving the car at the trailhead for about 32 hours. Would the battery die if the glove compartment light was on that whole time, assuming I can't turn it off?

Either find a way to keep the button that turns the light on depressed (tape?), or pull the bulb.......
