Question:
Hi I’m looking for the actual locking mechanism and key for the cable lock that pulls out of the rack to secure the bikes from theft. Do you sell this cable lock with the key? I see the locking plastic end cap to cover the lock but do t see the actual lock. Thanks

We do have the Replacement Locking End Cap # TH8523294001 that can be used with the Lock Core Kit # TH450200 for the Thule Vertex 4 Bike Rack TH9029XT that you found, but unfortunately if your cable lock is broken Thule doesn't have a replacement so you'll need to use a standard cable lock instead.
I recommend going with the cable lock # e98891 but if you want to use one that can be keyed alike with your bike rack then you can use the Thule Cable Lock # TH538XT and then use the Lock Core Kit # TH450200.
