I bought these on Ebay... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2433926955 The problems are these.. 1. I'm not sure if I should key the ignition to the door, like original, or as a stand alone key and have the doors, trunk, and glove box keyed alike. Originaly GM in 69 had the ignition and the door keys alike...which led to thieves taking your door lock, making a key, and coming back later with an ignition key and driving away. GM later altered this by keying the ignition as the square and the rest with the round key. Thoughts?? The car is a high dollar restification with many functional/performance/handling mods with almost no exterior styling changes, so strict ORIGINALITY isn't a concern. 2. The glove box lock is a Camaro unit which I think should be exactly the same however...when installing this where would I get the proper trim for the lock mechanism. In other word the non "wing nut" style lock ferrel? Is this something I can change? The Firebird is a simple flat round dress piece..If I'm not mistaken. Help if you can.
