Expert Reply:

The best way to add locks to the Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack is to use Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders - Qty 4 # TH450400. This comes with 4 lock cores for each tower of the Thule AeroBlade roof rack and it comes with 2 matching keys and the master key for changing out lock cores.

The Replacement Lock Cylinder for Thule Racks and Carriers - N197 # THLOCKN197 is specifically a replacement lock core if your roof rack has the N197 key code stamped into the lock core. If you have that code then this is the replacement lock core that you need, and it will fit the Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack. If you do not have lock cores already installed then you will need to go with the complete # TH450400 kit. I attached a demonstration video for you to check out.
