Then in must be my lock is wigged out, I just realized I can start my
car with just about any key that fits in the slot. I must have been
using the glovebox key to start the car all this time.

Yup.
Original keys, too. Well, two of them. I never worried about locking
the glove box. Actually, I never worry about locking anything except
the tru^H^H^Hboot, and then only sometimes.
Maybe it's for that reason that I never realized that the glove box has
its own key, but neither of my keys will persuade it. The ignition key
is a perfect fit, but only goes in 3/4 of the way, and can't budge the
lock (ooh, what a goldmine of double entendre!).
Personally, I don't see why they even bothered to put locks on the doors
of the Tourers.
