I have this lock that is new unused. The person from whom I got it told me he was stationed in England in the '60’s and purchased it at the Lotus Factory during a tour.
He told me it is an Elan glove box lock, but it has no push button release, just a “turn the key, extend or retract the bolt” type, so I don’t see how it could be that or even a boot lock. It certainly doesn’t go anywhere on my S1.
Can anyone ID this part?
