The under seat lock box for the Westy single middle seat uses the exact
same lock as the glovebox. On some Westy vans that came stock with the
middle seat it was already keyed to match the glovebox.

It is trivial to remove the lock from the seat. Then send or take it to
have it matched to your glovebox key. Same goes for the glovebox for
those who wish to have a key for their glovebox and don't.
