Need Help!!!!

I bought a toolbox for my Taco and it is a crossbox. Problem is that I dont have the keys for the locks themselves. They are the push pin assembly type locks. I ordered some replacement locks from Mr. Lock thinking wow that was just way too easy! Well it was! The two lock assemblies on the box currently do not match. One I can replace the lock but the striker doesnt match up and the other assembly is sealed so it looks like I need to replace the whole assembly. I found the name of the box to be Contico and on the other side of the lock it says TUFFBOX. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement generic push lock assembly??? I will post a picture for you to visualize . . . please help as this is getting rather frustrating.

Where did you buy the box at? I would check with the vendor/store and see if they have replacement parts before you start trying a rigged solution.
