My 1947 Plymouth glove box is locked because if it isn’t it will not stay closed, but I leave the key in the lock so I will not lose it, The spouse always locks up the other vehicles, but there is nothing in them to steal… that I am aware of anyhow. If I wanted to assume a felony for stealing from a vehicle, I would just break the window.
I changed the battery on my vehicle yesterday and had to use the key to unlock the door and the key to reset the alarm the key fob would not shut it off or unlock the doors.
When I was a kid, I was parked in the Taco Bell parking lot. I came back out, and a car identical to mine was parked next to me. (1959 Ford Galaxy 500). On a whim I stuck my key in their door to see if it would unlock it. What do you know? It did! I quickly re locked it and drove away. I’ve never trusted keyed locks since.
Our 2014 Camry has a locking glove box with one key for the door, glove box and ignition with a separate key that only unlocks the door and the ignition for valet service
Our cars are “push button start”, have “fobs”, and only an emergency key located inside the fob. I never checked, but I don’t believe either the dash compartments or the console compartments are lockable.

Are there even such cars with key-operated glove boxes? I’ve never heard such thing.

One key for the door, one for the ignition, one for the gb.

I always thought a lock on the “glove” box was unnecessary. After all, the box itself was made of black cardboard.

My truck is so basic is does not even have a locking glove box.

Why would anyone need to lock up their gloves?

My ’98 Saturn is state of the art. The same ignition key unlocks gb, doors and trunk.

I remember when my dad called that compartment the gin box.

My door locks haven’t worked in years. Luckily, nobody ever bothers the vehicle. Must be the multi colored paint job. Primer does wonders.

So, you see TEMPLO S.U.D., lots of people had and have keys for their glove compartments.

What Plugger among us has ever locked the glove compartment ?
