Well, never mind the request for a key, unless someone has one with a
key regardless.
I found the lock assembly in a bag that had been on the passenger floor
before the break in, and amazingly enough, after a little bit of TLC, it
still works.
That being said, I'm still going to need to find a replacement door to
stick it together with, and possibly a new latch assembly before I'll be
able to use this one again, as it appears to be a part that isn't meant
to ever be taken apart. (little plastic catches that hook over the
tumbler, and break if pried apart to release the tumbler...)
Thanks again for any info or leads on a glove box door.
