Need Side Box Expert!
So I found a tiny tow yard with a 70 longbed. Nothing too exciting except... a PERFECT side box door! The only problem is that it is locked and there are no keys. The latch is loose so it is slightly open enough to see the latch. Can I just push down on latch arm to open or do I need to cut a hole through the inner box?
Also, what is it worth? I am gonna put it up for sale as soon as I get it, I have a shortbed so I don't need it.

Re: Need Side Box Expert!
I might need a side box to put where there isn't one on my truck...
Here's picture from another thread on how the latch is set up (showing it unlocked). It might take some work to get it to unlatch if locked... Looks like if you somehow got the E-clip off the lock so that the L-shaped lock latch can fall off out of the way so that the door latch can move. Or somehow unbolt the catch bolts. Study the picture and you can probably figure something depending on how much room you have.
