    Mark VI trunk latch

      Nope. I just want to keep things simple.

          Bump. I'm also looking for a glove box latch. I know that many of you go to the junkyards on a regular basis, so keep me in mind. I'm willing to pay a finder's fee. Thanks!

            If you don't care about having a locking latch, The HELP section of the auto parts store either has one or can order one. Less than $10

              The glove box latch hasn't arrived yet. It's coming from Lincoln Land.

                    My glovebox latch was busted and I picked up one that matched with a missing key off eBay for cheap. For me, the scissor clips on the inside broke. I basically just swapped the good internals into my original glove box latch and was able to keep the original one I had. Could also be an idea?
