Question:
I have an older Thule Frontier box with a traceability label that shows a date code of 07-16-02 and a Part# of 04833 attached. Can you tell me what mounting hardware I need? Im guessing its Thule 4997, but want to be sure prior to ordering it. Thank you.

Expert Reply:
There are 2 possible mounting kit options depending on the style of your Thule Frontier cargo box. For the regular Frontier the correct kit is # TH04997 like you have mentioned.
If it is a Frontier ES then you would use EasySnap u-bolt # 43216. But based on the date code you have provided you have the regular Frontier box and would need # TH04997.
