<VV> Glove box door lock

[Frank DuVal]

IIRC the glove box lock uses oval tumblers, not the typical "h" shaped 
tumblers of the door, ignition, etc locks.

The replacement glove box lock cylinders come preloaded with the 
tumblers, and you insert your key and grind the tumblers sticking out to 
"re-key" to match your key. Sounds crazy? You bet! So if you can 
dissassemble the replacement lock to the cylinder stage, just insert 
your key and grind to fit. Filing may be a better method, it is soft 
brass tunblers.
