I don't have this key, never have, so it would cost too much to have a
locksmith key it - unless its a universal key - but in any case I don't see
the point - if they can break into your car - a lock on your glove box won't
stop them - probably won't even slow them down - and then you'd have the
added cost of a destroyed glove box.....
