My glove box lock is slowly dieing... it seems to just turn and turn and cant transfer much torque to the latch inside the glovebox making it hard to lock.. also it ofton drops open when driving.. unlocking seems ok mind.

Any idea where I can get one from..?

Cheers

Damian

www.southco.com is worth a look clicky

Not sure if they'll sell one offs to the public but should be able to put you onto a local distributor ?

Or take a mooch through rswww.com

Your problem sounds to me more like the symptoms you get when the pawls on the key have worn away rather than a problem with the lock itself.

I spent ages looking for a replacement through RS / Southco and couldn't readily identify the right one. In the end I dropped Neil a line at TVRCP and had one delivered within a couple of days.

Hi,

If that is the type of lock described by KETVRIN, then I have a couple knocking around the workshop, with keys. Let me know and send me your e-mail adress and I will send one to you.
