Expert Reply:
The tamperproof screw # 853-5269 is compatible with many Thule accessories, including ski carriers. This is an M6 screw and uses the special allen wrench # 853-5270-02 to tighten or loosen.
This screw will be compatible with Thule 724, 725, and 726 ski carriers only so if you have a different model then it would not work. This screw is also included in the mounting kit # 7533998 for the above ski carriers. The bottom parts of the feet have threaded holes for the screws.
