Glove box latch

Was wondering if anyone has a glove box latch or glove box with latch. If not any one know were to get one?

 

Might check eBay, Amazon, dealer. They're around $15-20 so probably best to buy new rather than one out of a wrecking yard.

 

I purchased a new one from a local dealer last year. Mine is a 2015 SR5 PreRunner 4.0L, so the part number may be different. That part # for my truck is 55506-60020-B1 - part of the part # includes the color of the handle. In my case there were 3 different colors if I recall correctly, so another might be B2 and yet another maybe B3...something like that.
Out the door price was $20.39 including local tax.

 

The parts guy may have one too.
Is he still on TW?

 

Doesn't look like an active thread but may be worth a try.

Buy one from a 4 runner. That way you have the option of a locking glovebox.

 

Is it compatible?

 

Absolutely. I did it........

 

I think the mod cost me I think $20.......

 

I like it.
Will add to the list.
Thanks.

 

My next mod

 

I like this. IS there a thread on this?? Looking for lock to fit 2012 base 2dr 4x4. Use a 4 runner 2012 latch/lock?
I assume you'll not be able to use your ignition key?

Thanks

 

You'll have to see if the mechanisms are the same. I only first gen.

 

I got the locking mechanism from the junkyard free. The locksmith charged me 10 or 20 bucks to match my ignition key.

 

But this is a gen 2 thread...

 

I just noticed that. Sorry.

 

Not real sure what good a locking glove box is. Any thief can have it open with a flat blade screwdriver in 2 secs and make a mess doing it.
It might keep sticky fingers at the hand wash car wash out, but if there's something in there I don't want to lose - out it comes.

 

Thank God! For a minute I thought they sold me the wrong generation.

 

I assume that for a locking glove box for 2008 Tacoma with gray interior I would need to order 2 parts: 55506-35020-B0, Lock (for an '05 4Runner) and 69056-60160, Lock Cylinder - Toyota (for an '03 4Runner). Is this correct?
