Facelift Glovebox
« on: 28 July 2010, 18:51:31 »
How do you remove and refit the glovebox on a facelift miggy?
Also need to mention that my lock barrel seems to be missing all of it pins/parts??? Can i get a new locking barrel to work with my key or do i just have to leave it as it is (unlocked)?

Why oh why was there never a V8 Omega????
Such a missed oppurtunity.
Look forward to the Cadillac ATS & ATS-V. Maybe a re-badged one will replace the Miggy as a RWD runner?

Great, but this does not answer my question on the barrel pins and springs?

Unlikely to get glovebox lock barrel to match existing key. If you`re that concerned about having it locked I`ve got a key blade with matched lock.

I've probably locked my glove box in my car a hand full of times ever. However I can't see it being difficult to match a few of the 'new' lock tumblers to your existing key. IIRC on one car I played with the glovebox on, it only used a few tumblers compared with the ignition & door locks anyway.  ;)

Personally I can`t see the need to have the box locked........each to his own though

It doesn't need to be locked at any time but just wanted to see if it COULD be done. Thanks guys.
