Helpful Expert Reply:

Is the lock core in the unlocked position currently? If so, you can insert the change key part # Y8007835 so that you can pull the core out and get the key number that's stamped on the side of it.

For example if you have the core number A147 the key you would need is part # Y8772-A147.

Since your box is open currently it looks like the core would be unlocked and this would work as a way to get new keys. Otherwise a locksmith would have to unlock the core to get it out with the change key.

my Yakima space booster is locked & no keys to be found. I have drilled out the latch rivets and need to find out where the numbers are on the latch to order new keys.

The key number is stamped (not terribly visible) right on the side of the lock cylinder itself. You'll be able to read it, but it does require a bit of squinting. Check out the answer page I linked below that shows an example image.
