Grey Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 I, like most people have not locked a glove box in decades. Did not know my MKX even had a lock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Talionis Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 I purchased the one for an MKX and installed it in our 2008 Edge. purchased one what? a stand alone box or the MKX door that has a lock? please explain. Did the MKX have a locking door and you just retrofitted it? Did you have to get it keyed to your key? anyway.... GunVault makes some nice biometric safes that could be mounted under the rear seats.

rwbronco Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) if someone manages to break into your car, the glovebox will be even easier. go with a company like GunVault. Unless you simply want to keep kids in the car from opening it and being able to play with a handgun or something along those lines - which I can understand edit he either bought a handle or entire glovebox door for an MKX. Here's a picture showing the locking handle: mkx glovebox Edited September 2, 2010 by rwbronco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nextime Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 I have never ever locked a glovebox. I rather leave it unlocked cause it is one more thing to break when they break in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL my thoughts exactly...the plastic mounts would be the weak link and to have a thief jam a screwdriver/pry bar in between the gbdoor/dash would probably do pretty significant damage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just pried the UN LOCKED door open with a big screw driver. The only part of the car damaged was the UNLOCKED glove box. ab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't believe a thief wouldn't try the latch first....you should register that one in the "Stupid Theives" catagory :wacko: I guess you'd have to be lacking sense anyway to risk imprisonment over the contents of a car...or even a car for that matter...sorry to hear about your parents getting ripped off!
