It's not illegal to have a handgun in your car or a car under your control.

It is illegal to have a handgun in your car or a car under your control if:
  • It is in plain view;
    You are engaged in criminal activity other than Class C traffic violations;
    You are prohibited from possessing firearms by state or federal law; or
    You are a member of a criminal street gang as defined in Chp. 71 of the Texas Penal Code.
Chas.
If all of these requirements are met, could a non-chl holder have a handgun in, e.g., a glove-box on a school parking lot?

I know a CHL holder can.

Thanks,

Larry
From other threads on the subject, I believe that the short answer for a non-CHL holder is "No".
