I like it. It means if someone breaks into the car they can’t get into the glove box. Also, with a Tesla, the car is never off so you don’t need to turn the car on again to get access to it.
If the attacker already broke into the car, I doubt the glovebox is going to put up much of a fight.
Also, I'm pretty sure the glovebox itself has a lock in a lot of cars.
Thieves will find a way.
For your benefit, you'd need to have a thief that somehow can break class (which is suprisingly hard to do if you ever tried it) and then can't defeat a simple latch on a glovebox where they now for sure valuables lie?
Get out of here.
Thief's who break windows to get into cars carry tools.. your glovebox is NOT secure.
Lastly, you seem unaware that most car thief's don't break the windows because this often leads to their capture.
