Square or round back console/glove box locks

What do the console and glove box locks look like on a 69 Charger? I see many different styles. Some with round housings on the back side, and some with square housings. There are also some differences in the stainless steel sleeve that sometimes is present between the knob and the housing. While I realize that either style may work, I am wondering what would have been on the car originally. Any pictures would be much appreciated...Thanks

I posted a pic of my NOS pair with matching trunk lock years ago, but am having some difficulty locating exactly which thread.

I did see that posting. Sometimes though NOS replacement parts are different than what was installed at the factory. I was hoping to see some photos of original locks from a 1969 Charger.

Those are what my originals look like in my 8/5?/68 St. Louis car. The car did not come with a trunk cylinder however, so when I saw a matching NOS set years ago, I snagged it.

The square locks are being reproduced, the round ones are not. That pretty much decides it for most people.
