Re: [T3] Glove Box Door



<x-flowed>I'll ship you my chrome cylinder w/no lock off my 72 for $25? Steve Rossiter wrote:

Dave thanks-

I too think that the part number change would have to do with the change from the small push button last used in '67 to the larger turn knob starting in '68. The reason I am asking is that my car (early '64) has the small push button door, but I want to install the accessory large push button lock. At first I figure I could just locate an early large button door and use it, but have not been successful with that yet. Then I was going to drill a lager hole in a spare small push button but realized that the hole centers are different. So trying to drill a slightly lager hole just off center in double walled sheet metal won't be a lot of fun. Then I saw a '72 and looking at the door it looks like the hole for the knob is about the same size as the early push button. So if anyone has an early and later door that they can compare size shape and hinge mounts, that would be great. Of course if any one has an early large button door they want to sell I would prefer that to trying to modify one to work. Thanks-

Steve
