Do you happen to know where to find this type of glove box (twist style)?

I believe I scoured eBay and classifieds here on Mud until somebody parted one out. Good luck in your hunt!

Over the last year or so…

I have successfully created the needed step by steps and sourced the Japan Spec. Lock and Key Service Parts Needed and now routinely Re-KEY / Re-Code any OEM Toyota Locking Gas / Fuel / Diesel Cap that uses a 2 sided / Double sided factory key profile ……1973-1997 All Vehicle Platforms globally including Land Cruisers ….


However ….

I have went at the Locking Type Round Twisting style OEM Glove Box door lock above ⬆️ in my Classified ad here un-successfully ….😕

Do to the way it’s Press-Seamed together at the Factory in Japan 🇯🇵 … I will say for now this is Not Possible , and I can say for a solid degree of certainty, that I do Not think there is a method or technique to do this correctly ….

I had / have several pre-owned same exact glove box locks , and I tried 2 different approaches….

no-go unfortunately….

The Good newz is each NOS OEM locking glove box lock I have , includes the Factory Key Code either stamped on each OEM Key Shaft , or on a included OEM Toyota little Chrome Tag shown in the photos above ⬆️

In some cases both the keys are stamped and the keys 🔑 include a little chrome key code tag , but NOT all the time ….fyi
