We are getting really close to the finish line on the 75' so getting down to small stuff.

Apparently, the 2 steel keys that came with the car are valet keys that only open the doors and work in the ignition. So, the other 3 locks don't have a key.

If I'm to ever have a proper red and black key, is there a way to make a key from the say trunk lock?

If you would get a Porsche CoA does it have key codes?

I does work in the ignition and the doors.

Oh, I misread your post.

So I'm missing something here, because those steel keys with the valet slot cut in them should not be able to work the glovebox, but the black one with the vlaet slot missing should. Unless, of course, someone replaced the doors and ignition with a different key (which commonly happened, because if someone lost their keys but the glovebox and trunks were unlocked then they'd just buy a set of matching door and ignition tumblers from somoene and not ever bother with locking the trunks...)

I recommend working directly with Curt to resolve it. he can get it straightened out and even re-key everything to match. - GA
