Eric:

Steve did answer me off-line basically stating that he’s never encountered the under-seat lockable storage.

He did confirm my hypothesis that if the key-ways were the same, the locks could be re-keyed to a single key.

I just went out to the Hyena and confirmed that the glovebox key fits in the under-seat storage lock and vice-versa.
