Default Trunk/Glove box Lock Issue

OK, now that the door lock issue is solved I have a problem with the glove box lock.

Glove box lock assembly seemed very loosey-goosey and had paint overspray all over it so I decided to pull it out to check and refresh. Under the best of circumstances, these are difficult to remove as you really need three or four hands. This one was a real struggle to remove, but somehow I did get it out. Once removed, I notice that the lock 'code' for the glove box lock is a different code than the trunk lock is. Key works fine in the trunk lock, but after a whole lot of fiddling around today, I cannot get the glove box lock to turn with the key (despite the fact that I somehow did get it turned to the lock position in order to remove the lock in the first place!).

Is there someone that sells specific-coded glove box locks, or is this something a competent auto lock shop could rework?
