rekey glove compartment lock 1995 993
I have a master key? which opens both doors and starts the ignition, however the key does not lock the glove compartment. I am assuming that the car has been rekeyed except for the glove compartment.
I have removed the lock assembly from the glove compartment and have requested a locksmith to rekey but they have not been successful at removing the tumbler core. Has any one successfully had the glove compartment lock assembly rekeyed for a 1995 993? Does anyone have details on how to disassemble a glove compartment lock assembly? I am in Vancouver, BC Canada and if you've had a specific locksmitch do this work I'd like to know who. Thanks, Reynaldo |

The locksmith I brought the lock assembly to finally got it done. After considering it a puzzle/challenge they got it apart by drilling to get access.
The assembly with some visible drill marks (not seen after re-installation into the glove compartment location : inside or out no visible difference from original) works as required. If anyone is interested the locksmith was: Mason LockSmith On King George and ~ 104th in Surrey, BC. The best part is they charged me only the standard re-keying rate of $25 CDN despite the four day investigation and dissasembly. |
