Honda Fit was broken into... glove compartment lock for gd3?

This morning my 07 Fit as broken into. From the looks of it, they look like they had no flash light and just took whatever they could get their hands on in the dark.

Highest valued object was my skateboard and rayband sunglasses, other than that, they took some weird shit like my crown royal shift knob cloth cover lol. They mainly dug into my glove compartment but nothing important was inside other than honda fit registration and documents.

Anyway, is there a DIY Glove Box Lock Assembly for the Fit or does Honda sell OEM ones?

If they can break into the car then a lock on the plastic glove box isn't going to stop anybody.

It doesn't seem useless to point out that there's no good way to securely lock a plastic box.
Moreover, anyone able to break into a locked car has the capability to quickly defeat a locked plastic box. For example, even if the latch could be locked it wouldn't take more than a few seconds to use a decent screwdriver to break the plastic hinges.
What are your ideas?

Replace the glovebox with small safe like they have in hotels?

Anyway, 77510-SAA-G01ZA LID ASSY., GLOVE BOX *NH167L* is probably what you want but no idea if exists for sale. Maybe try junkyards.
