    Odd, I thought valet key was NOT supposed to open the glove box and that was its purpose - so you can lock things away they can't get to.

    I must be mistaken and now wonder what the true purpose is... :notsure:

    From my research

    Valet - Used only in ignition and doors, can not be used to program additional keys and is grey in color.

    Master - Black in color and does everything above.
