Exact fit
I had purchased this car from my sister, but she had lost the key to the storage on the top rack. All I had to do was look up the number on the lock and match it on the key.
by:
My ordering experience was easy, shipping was surprisingly fast and I can happily remove our Thule box from the top of my car. Highly recommend etrailer.
by:
Great that you can find the specific lock core you want instead of having to buy a whole group set straight from Thule.
by:
After lost keys and a month wait, e trailer followed through. Great service.
by:

I am glad we had the right key for you Robin! I keep a set in my glove box, and an extra set at home, I too like to misplace things. Did the lost one show up yet? I feel like they always have a funny way of doing so after we get the new one.

by:
It works as it’s intended.its good that you still carry this product or key. It save me time and money instead modifying my roof top cargo container. Thank you

You're very welcome Bill, I'm glad we could help!

by:
The key works perfectly. I had a car topper that had been sitting in my yard for several years that I wanted to use. I tried every key I could find but could not open the topper. Once I figured out the number key I needed, I ordered a new key from etrailer. The company had great communication letting me know when they received my order, when they shipped it and when I received it. I would highly recommend etrailer for replacement keys.
by:
Replacement key fit perfectly and after shipping issues from the carrier (outside etrailer control). Staff stayed attentive to the order, noticed the shipment was stuck in a loop with usps and repackaged a new shipment to make sure I received the product. Highly recommend!! Service is outstanding!!!
by:
Thank you for the constant communication and prompt service and quick shipping to canada. The key fits like a glove.

Still works perfect!

by:
I had ordered a replacement key for my cargo carrier from another company that said it would work but was only terribly disappointed when I received it and it did not. So, I found your company and ordered another key and was so happy when I was finally able to unlock the carrier and get out my gear. Thank you so much! It was perfect!
by:
The keys were perfect, I could open the top parts of the rack but it seems that the bottom parts that sit on the roof are different cause I can open the end parts on them and there is no number on them or indication to match to a key number, beside that I,m very satisfied thank you

I couldnt find a number on the bottom rack and as I didnt need it right away, I will take to the locksmith to open it and install a new barrel

by:
Amazing service! Leaving for vacation and two days prior couldn't find lock key for my Thule cargo carrier. Found one on etrailer and next day had it. Paid premium for over night but gotta do what you gotta do.
by:
The key worked perfect. Fast shipping. Ordered another key for my other rooftop cargo box
by:
Was hoping key would fit my vw locking roof bars and was so happy to find the key I ordered would fit. It was my understanding that vw roof bars are made by Thule. It seems to be the case so I'm very happy.
by:
Fits and works great. Processing and shipping was very fast. The day I placed the order it was processed that day and shipped out the next day
